Possibilities of Job Changer"},"content":{"rendered":"

A fascinating and ambitious career path in IT is a dream, which at Sii can really come true very fast. At the company there are many examples of spectacular careers. There are also advanced tools supporting the management of workers \u2013 for example the Job Changer, thanks to which they can do a 180 degree turn in their career without changing the employer. About worker\u2019s development, the career paths in Sii, and if are there ends without exits \u2013 Joanna Kucharska, CHRO in Sii, tells.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Katarzyna Domanska, CSR Manager at Sii: What exactly does the slogan \u201ca clear career path\u201d mean? And why doesn\u2019t Sii offer such a solution to workers and those seeking employment?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Joanna Kucharska, CHRO at Sii:<\/strong> According to a traditional understanding of this concept, it means that every worker has, from start to finish, a designated plan of conditions for promotion and rising through the company hierarchy. For example: you start from the position of assistant, then, after two years work, you gain a concrete set of skills and training to enable you to reach the position of junior specialist. And so on: you become a specialist, senior specialist, expert\u2026 This transition between jobs is laid out precisely in the above mentioned career path.<\/p>\n

In Sii, we don\u2019t have any written conditions for promotion in such a fashion. For many reasons. Firstly, because we are developing quickly, we adjust flexibly to the needs of the market and are answerable to the needs of clients. That\u2019s why, we\u2019re not able to tell anyone, that a position, which we have today, will still be there in an unchanged form in a year or two\u2019s time. If we had set up a plan five years ago for a career path according to the traditional understanding of one, we could not have foreseen the majority of the most important positions which exist today. So, it would have just been theory on paper, art for art\u2019s sake, unnecessary bureaucracy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Secondly, time is not the main criterium for promotion. There are those who stay in the same position for a few years and don\u2019t work towards formal advancement because they\u2019ll get it anyway in a year or two. But there are others who have developed their skills so much that they are ready for promotion after only one year, but who are \u2018out of tune\u2019 with the formal career path, since this should only happen after two or three years. In Sii, the best have a big chance of swift promotion, sometimes even in a spectacular fashion.<\/p>\n

Thirdly, we place a great deal of emphasis on the initiative of the worker, on being answerable to their needs. And talents. Thanks to this, we have a flexible and practical career path. Advancement in Sii can be in many directions. An assistant salesperson can, for example, be promoted to a sales specialist, but he or she may also redirect their career development into a completely different field, such as marketing or managing IT projects. Foreseeing every possibility in advance is simply \u2026 impossible. And surely misses the target.<\/p>\n

We emphasise directing a worker\u2019s potential career advancement according to their areas of competence. In practice, we can distinguish three main directions of travel: expertise, management and business. In the first of these, the worker develops his concrete skills: from being a junior engineer\/specialist, to senior and then on to expert, for example in specific technology or in accounting area. Choosing to develop in a managerial direction does not depend on anyone\u2019s position \u2013 if a worker has the potential to become a leader, then he or she is capable of managing others. This path is often chosen by those possessing technical skills \u201cwith a twist\u201d, since it gives them the possibility of working on interesting projects with a great deal of independence (Tomek, Service Delivery Manager in Sii Gdansk, is a good example). This is bound to happen to those on the business path, which offers development on the sales side, where you are first in line to cooperate with the client \u2013 and it\u2019s possible to go from there into any branch in Sii.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
