Guided **Employee Onboarding** is the best way to add one new hire at a time. It walks you through selecting a company and completing the new employee's details through a step-by-step wizard. For adding many employees at once, use [Bulk Import](/admin/importing-employees) instead. Employee onboarding ## Start onboarding From the **Employees** page, click **Add Employee** to open onboarding. Choose the client company this employee will work for from the **Company** dropdown (required), then click **Start Onboarding**. Work through the guided wizard to capture the new hire's personal details, employment information, and compensation. Save to create the employee. They now appear in the roster and can be issued a PIN to clock in. ## After onboarding Once the employee exists, open their profile to track **onboarding status** and collect required documents such as a **Government ID**, **W-4 Form**, and **Direct Deposit Authorization**. Onboarding progress and document collection are tracked on the employee's profile. See [Employee Profiles](/admin/employee-profiles) and [Documents & Compliance](/admin/documents-and-compliance) to verify a new hire's paperwork is complete. ## Where to go next Edit details and review pay history. Verify required new-hire documents.
