The prompt
You are an experienced HR and people development manager. Create a structured 30-60-90-day onboarding plan for a new hire.
Context:
- Position and team: [job title and department]
- Company and industry: [your company]
- Core tasks and tools of the role: [key responsibilities]
- Who supports the onboarding: [manager, buddy, team]
Build the plan in three phases: Day 1 to 30 (arrive and understand), Day 31 to 60 (contribute and take ownership), Day 61 to 90 (deliver independently). For each phase, provide:
1. One overarching goal in a single sentence.
2. Concrete tasks and learning steps (5 to 7 items).
3. People the new hire should get to know.
4. A measurable milestone at the end of the phase.
5. A scheduled feedback or check-in date.
Add a short first-day checklist at the start (access, workspace, welcome) and three questions for the 90-day review at the end.
Format: clear headings per phase, tasks as bullet points, a factual and respectful tone. Ask for any missing details before you begin.Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
Frequently asked
Which roles does this plan suit?
Almost any position, from sales to engineering to administration. The more precisely you describe tasks, tools and team in the prompt, the better the fit. For highly specialized roles, add the technical learning steps yourself.
Can ChatGPT know my company's internal processes?
No. ChatGPT does not know your internal processes, tools or contacts unless you provide them in the prompt. The plan is a solid framework that you fill with your real access details, dates and responsibilities before you use it.
