MetLife, a leading global insurance provider with nearly 43,000 employees worldwide, hosts the Innovation Challenge, where interns and program attendees collaboratively devise and pitch creative solutions to specific challenges. This year, our goal was to "reimagine onboarding to ensure a modern high-touch and high-tech experience that accelerates and fosters connection, inclusion, and productivity."

Our solution, MetSetGo, addresses the challenges of decentralization, resource navigation, and complex scheduling. MetSetGo is a self-service, three-component employee onboarding system focused on the new hire's first five days. It leverages technology to reduce potential miscommunication between hiring managers and new employees, standardizes learning and training for each role to eliminate knowledge gaps, and serves as a comprehensive platform for accessing employee-related information and resources.
