I built a fully automated new hire onboarding sequence—here’s how it works!

This end-to-end workflow demonstrates how to automate a personalized welcome process using n8n, Google Sheets, Gemini, and other integrated tools.

Here’s the step-by-step flow:

📊 Google Sheets Trigger – The workflow starts when a new hire is added to a spreadsheet.

🤖 Gemini AI – Generates a custom welcome email using the hire’s name, role, team, and even a fun personal fact.

📅 Google Calendar – Automatically creates a welcome meeting.

💬 Slack – Posts an announcement to the team channel introducing the new member.

✉️ Gmail – Sends the beautifully crafted email to the new hire.

The best part? The AI personalization—like this email for Alex, our (fictional) pie-eating champion:

"We heard you’re a national pie-eating champion – that’s quite a feat! We’re thrilled to have your unique talents and enthusiasm."

This project showcases how automation can enhance onboarding—making it efficient, consistent, and genuinely welcoming.

If you’re into automation or no-code workflows, I’d love to hear your thoughts!
