An n8n workflow automation that streamlines employee onboarding by receiving new hire form submissions via Webhook, normalizing name, role, and start date fields. The pipeline creates a Google Sheets employee record, generates a Notion onboarding checklist page, sends a Gmail welcome email, and announces the new team member in the Slack #people-ops channel.
