Yet 33 % of new hires start looking for a new job within the first six months. A well-designed onboarding experience bridges that gap – turning nervous newcomers into confident, productive team members. Project spotlight ## Olympic Entertainment Group We designed a welcoming, gamified onboarding experience for OlyBet's Cornerstone platform – combining branded visuals, interactive checklists, and role-specific learning paths that reduced time-to-productivity and boosted new hire satisfaction. ![Olympic Entertainment onboarding](https://octily.com/assets/olympic-entertainment-welcome-page-DSDpQx3u.webp) Project spotlight ## AAK For AAK, we created a bespoke onboarding journey that reflects their global brand.

The journey ## From preboarding to full integration Effective onboarding is a process, not an event. We help you design each phase. 1 ### Preboarding Engage new hires before their first day with welcome emails, pre-reading, and account setup guides. 2 ### Onboarding The first weeks – structured learning, team introductions, role-specific training, and milestone celebrations. 3 ### Integration Months two through six – ongoing check-ins, development goals, feedback loops, and growing independence.
