START WITH THE ACTUAL WORK
Why connect recruitment & onboarding?
An accepted offer does not automatically produce an employment record, system access, orientation, or a ready manager. Those handoffs need owners.

A WORKED EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE SCENARIO
An accepted offer is not completed onboarding
A successful candidate has accepted a role but still needs required checks, contract confirmation and a first-day plan.
The decision and its context
Assign each onboarding requirement to an owner and separate completion evidence from a simple tick. Confirm which tasks must be resolved before the person begins the role, under the institution’s procedures.
What a complete outcome looks like
The hiring team should see outstanding dependencies and who resolves them. A staff record should receive approved information rather than every recruitment note.

Useful questions about recruitment & onboarding.
Do rejected candidate files become staff records?
No. A confirmed appointment initiates the employment handover; unsuccessful applications retain their own appropriate access and retention rules.
How are people prepared for a new workflow?
Use role-based practice with realistic tasks, accessible instructions, and a named support route. Confirm who owns changes to relationships, responsibilities, and permissions.
