What it does

Gives every new hire a personal HR concierge on day one. It opens a Teams direct message with the key policies they need first (PTO, benefits enrollment deadlines, code of conduct) and stays available to answer follow-ups from the handbook.

When to use it

Use this to make onboarding consistent and reduce the day-one flood of HR questions. It ensures each new hire sees the must-read policies without HR sending manual messages, while still grounding every follow-up answer in Confluence.

How it works

  1. 1A new-hire record created in the HRIS triggers the flow via webhook.
  2. 2The flow pulls the role and start-date context to select the relevant onboarding policy set.
  3. 3It fetches those handbook pages from the Confluence space.
  4. 4An LLM assembles a friendly, personalized walkthrough message with links and deadlines.
  5. 5The concierge opens a Teams DM and delivers the walkthrough to the new hire.
  6. 6Follow-up questions in that DM are answered from the handbook, with PII requests deferred to HR.
