Want to fight turnover at your company? Try creating a new hire system.

Even in today's tough job market, some companies still have an issue with turnover. April Joyner wrote about this in a recent article. She lays out a five step system used at Big Fuel. Here are the five steps

Step 1: Meet your colleagues - get introduced and work with as many of your new coworkers as possible
Step 2: Back to school - have a series of classes not only about the company, but also the culture
Step 3: Watch and learn - official apprenticeships pairing new hires with senior employees
Step 4: Face time with the bigwigs - make sure the new employees get some time with the the top execs
Step 5: Tell us how you really feel - get new hires feedback on the program so you can institute improvements
