Seasonal parks staff quit or no-show during week one even though orientation attendance looks fine. How should the CHRO evaluate and redesign onboarding?

Short Explanation
Showing up for the slideshow and then vanishing from the ballfield is a first-week design fail, not a mystery. Give them a buddy, a shirt that fits, and a real schedule—and score the program on who is still there Friday.
Full Explanation
Onboarding quality is measured by early retention and productivity, not orientation attendance. Seasonal workforces are especially sensitive to uniform, schedule, and social-integration gaps in week one. A buddy path plus operational clarity, scored on no-shows and early quits, is an evaluation-backed redesign. Ignoring first-week data, abandoning support, or converting all seasonal work to permanent headcount treats the symptom or the budget, not the onboarding strategy.
