Project details

What we need
  • A written document that identifies the Organization's timeline, onboarding goals, recommended responsibilities and support for new hire success:
  • An onboarding checklist and timeline template that can be completed by the Organization for each new hire
  • A suggested checklist and template outlining onboarding methods the Organization should pursue to meet its goals (human resources and information technology materials, department presentations, mentor assignment, skill sharing, etc.)
  • Recommendations on how to delegate onboarding responsibilities within the Organization or department, if applicable
  • A short plan for communicating with the new hire prior to their first day of work
Additional details

The California Film Institute lacks a consistent and comprehensive new employee onboarding process. We need a plan for new employee success!

What we have in place
  • We currently have existing onboarding materials, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have insight from existing staff about onboarding and culture, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $7,716 , allowing us to focus on recruiting and supporting a more diverse workforce representative of the SF Bay Area and delivering exceptional services.

We are taking steps to ensure that the California Film Institute is a safe and equitable space for staff members, filmmakers and audiences alike. This includes the incorporation of inclusivity, diversity and accessibility measures into the organization's business plan and the introduction of tangible KPIs to hold ourselves accountable for our commitment to serve and engage diverse audiences through our work and hiring, onboarding, and retaining diverse employees that reflect the SF Bay Area.

New Employee Onboarding Project

Dane and the team at the California Film Institute were very responsive and great to work with. It was a pleasure getting to create a meaningful onboarding outline with them that will have a positive impact on both their full-time and seasonal new hires moving forward.
