While going back to the office will be an adjustment for everyone, it will be an entirely new experience for remote hires.
Here are six strategies to re-onboard employees who started remotely:
1) Allow remote hires to bond as a cohort.
2) Be thoughtful and make an extra effort to make these employees feel particularly welcome.
3) Orient them to the facilities.
4) Communicate with managers and check in regularly.
5) Create a buddy system.
6) Create informal team building opportunities.
On-boarding remotely does not mean job done, you will have to start again as if the team members are brand new hires to integrate successfully.
