Onboarding new hires with your handbook

Every new hire asks the same forty questions in their first two weeks. Leave policy, expense reimbursement, code of conduct, IT setup, who-do-I-talk-to-about-X. Your handbook answers most of them — but nobody reads a 60-page handbook cover to cover.

The problem

The "right" answer lives in your handbook, your IT runbook, your code-of-conduct PDF, and three Notion pages. New hires don't know which is canonical. So they ping their manager. The manager pings HR. HR forwards a section that the new hire could have found themselves — if asking the doc were as easy as asking a coworker.

How SeekFiles AI helps

• Train one assistant on every onboarding artifact — handbook, IT setup, benefits SPDs, expense policy, security training PDFs.
• Citation chips so every answer is traceable to the source page — no urban legends.
• Public sharing with a private link if you want — you control who can chat.
• Multilingual — any combination of languages, both interleaved. Hires aren't blocked by language.

A workflow that works

1. Build an "Onboarding Assistant" assistant.
2. Upload your latest handbook, IT setup guide, benefits doc, expense policy, security training PDFs, and any culture decks.
3. Share the public link in your offer letter or first-day email.
4. Track popular questions — surfaces the parts of your handbook that need rewriting.

What to upload

• Employee handbook
• IT/security setup runbooks
• Benefits SPDs and HMO plan docs
• Travel and expense policy
• Code of conduct, anti-harassment policy
• Org chart and "who-owns-what" doc

HR's job becomes deciding policy — not answering the same Slack DM forty times a month.
