In an organization such as a university with many institutions and new employees the onboarding process is a key activity for the employee life cycle. This study examines the possibilities and limitations of further digitalization of the process by including new formats for information. The format in question is 360-videos. These videos can be viewed both on head mounted displays which are used to create a 3D environment but also on computer screens which allows the content to be accessible to those that lack the 3D equipment. Based on semi-structured interviews with HR-employees at the university the study has found there to be many activities that are suitable for the format but also a few limitations concerning planning for and executing the development of new content for the onboarding process. The conclusions drawn from the results in this study and previous studies on the topic shows that implementation of 360-videos would lead to standardized content concerning many of the activities that cannot be done digitally by conference calls or two-dimensional videos. These activities are today done in person and at the responsibility of the new hires closest manager which leads to the activities being time consuming and can vary in terms of content.
