After selecting your chosen vendor, HR teams need to implement their HR solution. We’ve all heard implementation horror stories. But, what preparations or knowledge can help make the implementation process a little less painful?
In May 2021’s #HRforAll Twitter chat, we’re partnering with guest host Sarah White and sponsor GoCo.io to walk through the technology implementation process.

The Rules of a Twitter Chat
A Twitter chat is a LIVE chat that takes place on Twitter. People “gather” at a certain day and time to talk about a certain topic. There is usually one or two people who moderate or host the chat, who post questions to guide the conversation.
Questions are all marked with a Q and labeled with numbers to help everyone keep track of the flow of the conversation. People responding to questions should mark their answers with an A and the corresponding number.
For example, the moderators/ hosts will post “Q1” and everyone will answer with tweets marked “A1.”Additionally, all Tweets – both questions and answers – will use the hashtag #HRforAll. That’s how we’ll all stay connected on Twitter during the chat.
