A Look Into Remote Onboarding at Rapid7

A Look Into Remote Onboarding at Rapid7

Picture this; you accept a new role and walk in on your first day with jitters. You swing the double doors open and are welcomed by the fresh scent of kombucha on tap and the buzz of office chatter. The front desk receptionist welcomes you with a warm “hello!” and a freshly brewed tea or coffee. A member of the onboarding team shows you to the training room where you are seated with 20 other new employees and you chat about how excited you are to start! Onboarding commences and you learn all about your new company and role through group exercises, guest speakers, and a free lunch from the nearby cafe that you're likely to frequent regularly.


Now fast forward to remote work; your first day at your new company commences with the opening and logging into your new laptop as you kick off one slipper and sip your Mr. Coffee brewed cup. You inhale the fresh scent of your new laptop as your dog runs behind you and your neighbor slams their front door. How in the world could those in-person first day experiences be matched in this new world? At Rapid7, we have leveled up our remote onboarding experience to be as (close to) amazing as it once was in person (and will return to in the near future), minus the fresh brewed coffee and in-house provided lunch of course. Read on to hear from our People Development team to learn more about our remote global onboarding program and how you will feel like part of the herd on day one!
