Automated Contractor Onboarding Workflow
New contractor? Nora automates documents, payment setup, and team intro emails
When you add a contractor in Deel, Nora auto-generates offer letter, sends payment details, and notifies your team. Everything happens without manual work.
Onboarding contractors manually is tedious. Nora watches your Deel account for new contracts and auto-triggers a workflow: (1) Generate a personalized offer letter with contract terms, (2) Send payment setup instructions (bank details, Deel payment schedule), (3) Email your team introducing the contractor (role, start date, contact), (4) Create a Slack/email reminder for yourself to add them to relevant systems (CRM, project tools, Slack). Nora collects all documents in a Google Drive folder organized by contractor name. Track onboarding completion in a Sheets checklist. New contractors are productive by day 1 instead of day 3.
Runs within 1 hour of new contract creation using Deel and Google Workspace, run by your HR Manager.
