The article explores the role of modern onboarding tools as a means of stabilizing organizational staff in competitive markets. It emphasizes the importance of human resource management and onboarding processes in enhancing employee engagement, job satisfaction, and overall organizational effectiveness. The study highlights the lack of technological refinement and clear guidelines in onboarding processes in many companies. Through a comprehensive analysis, the authors identify and classify various onboarding models, such as traditional, situational, group, and virtual mentoring. They also emphasize the need for socialization and adaptation measures, including creating detailed adaptation plans, conducting team-building exercises, and integrating mentorship programs. The research is based on a survey conducted among employees of SPC “Advismash” LLC, which identified onboarding challenges such as lack of information and insufficient managerial support. Recommendations are made to improve onboarding through pre-employment procedures, mentorship systems, and structured adaptation programs. These measures aim to reduce staff turnover, improve employee morale, and foster a positive organizational culture.
