Onboarding design is the practice of crafting the experience new users or employees have when first engaging with a product or organization, aiming to help them understand value and reach proficiency quickly. Product designers and UX professionals apply it to software (welcome flows, tutorials, tooltips) while HR and people-ops teams apply similar principles to new-employee orientation. Effective onboarding design reduces drop-off, confusion, and time-to-value for new users or hires.
