Questions to consider for your employee on-boarding survey

Use these questions as suggestions when editing your copy. Keep the ones that fit your purpose and add any details your process needs.

  • Did you have the equipment and access you needed?
  • Were your role and early priorities clear?
  • What would have made your first weeks easier?

How to use the responses

Group feedback around the stage where the problem happened. Improve missing setup steps or information and check in with the employee on any issue that remains unresolved.

How to customize and share this template

  1. Explain the purpose, who will see responses, and how the team will use the findings.
  2. Keep questions focused on observable work experiences. Use a consistent scale for similar topics and separate comments about the workplace from individual performance decisions.
  3. Review identifying details and settings before sharing. Agree how results will be summarized and when employees will hear about the next steps.

Frequently asked questions

When should I send an employee onboarding survey?
Ask after the employee has had time to experience the process. You can use a brief early check and a later review to cover setup and settling into the role separately.
Can I customize this survey template?
Yes. Choose Use this template to make your own copy in Youform. Edit the questions and colors, review the whole flow, then share a link or embed it on your website. See Youform plans for advanced features.
Can an employee survey be anonymous?
You can design it to avoid collecting names, emails, and other identifying details, then review the relevant Youform settings. Also consider whether team size, job role, or written comments could identify someone before promising anonymity.
What should happen after an employee survey?
Review recurring themes, choose practical changes, and tell employees what you learned and what happens next. Explain what cannot change as well, so the survey does not become a request for feedback with no visible follow-up.
