Employee onboarding in 2025: Insights on key success factors
Most onboarding issues stay hidden until it’s too late. New hires might not speak up, but they notice everything: unclear paths, missing context, and lack of support. Every organization does its best to provide a great onboarding experience to new hires and reap these benefits. But why is this process so tricky to build and maintain?

The iSpring team conducted in-depth interviews with 11 HR and L&D experts from various industries, including manufacturing, healthcare, and retail, to identify common onboarding challenges, from disengaged managers to logistical headaches and inappropriate tools. In this webinar, we will share the insights gained from these interviews and practical ways to overcome these hurdles.
