JULY18, 2012, PALO ALTO, CALIFORNIA

Socialtext, a leading enterprise social software provider, will present a free webinar with Peoplefluent on how companies are using social software and collaboration tools to streamline work processes for onboarding new hires. While social networking has been part of the recruiting landscape for some time, companies are now using social technologies to help new hires become successful employees.

Introducing new hires into a company, and helping them get up to speed on benefits, processes and relevant information as well as people with whom to connect is one of the most important things that can ensure a new employee’s success. During the webinar, you’ll hear how companies are using enterprise social software to:

• Pre-distribute benefits and learning information
• Facilitate employee introductions and collaboration
• Pinpoint mentors and “birds of a feather”

This webinar: “From Warm-up to Winter’s Podium: Social Onboarding Goes for the Gold” will take place on Thursday, July 26 at 10 a.m. PT and 1pm ET. It will also feature an executive of talent management technology company PeopleFluent.
