Abstract
Onboarding of new employees is the first step towards their success in an organization and encourages them to assimilate into their new job, company culture and organization. The movement towards the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to improve onboarding has grown dramatically in the recent past. The purpose of this research paper is to explore how the use of AI can optimize the employee onboarding process at Softgel Healthcare Pvt. Ltd. The study will investigate and demonstrate how the integration of technology (Digital tools, automated systems, and Data-driven insights) can enhance the onboarding experience for new employees and improve the overall efficiency of the organization. The research methodology used to collect data for this study was through the use of employee opinions through structured questionnaires and employee feedback. The data collected was analyzed to ascertain the benefits of AI-enabled systems for functions associated with the onboarding experience, including Document Management, Training Guidance, Communication and Performance Tracking. The outcome of this study indicates that by using AI-driven solutions for employee onboarding functions, organizations can achieve measurable gains in the speed, accuracy and consistency of onboarding activities. Many employees feel that their onboarding experience has been improved by combining the use of AI-related technology with better communication, overall personalized learning assistance and a more fluid transition into the workplace. Additionally, Human Resource departments have experienced increased efficiencies as a result of AI technology and use of more efficient data management and decision-making processes.
