Set password after google authentication in laravel 5.3

I am trying to implement google login using socialite plugin in laravel in which i want to set password filed (is user should set a new password before entering into the profile page).

After the password entering i need to create a new user entry via User::create() method ,but i don't know how to access the $user variable in my createUser function

Code

public funtion handleCallback($provider){

//get userinfo
 $user = Socialite::driver($provider)->user();
 //set new password  
 return view('views.new-password');
}

//new password and create user
public function createUser(Request $request)
{
  //$user from handleCallback 
   dd($user)
}

Can i use a session variable to store this data so that i can access across multiple controllers is it the rightway to do this??
