HR Idea 26 : On-Job-Preview : OJP

Every Job has its ups & downs, good & bad.
You need to know to take that plunge 
Based on various requests by our readers, we are posting each idea separately to encourage comments and feedback. This would also ensure a focused discussion on each of the topics to learn.  Please  visit earlier postings for 1-25 HR Ideas.

26. On-Job-Preview - OJP : On-Job- Preview is a process in which the employer gives an opportunity for the new employee to get to know the work environment, job related scenarios and organisational perspective before joining. This process can be applied to many jobs in an organisation unless any sensitive products/services/work involved. To be able to implement this process there must be a set of non-disclosures in place.  This process would ensure that the employee joins the organisation with more clarity of information both positive and negatives than based on their own preconceived perceptions without OJP.  

Ideas : Employer can use various tools like Audio & Videos to capture  - A day in life of "Specific Role" and Audit interviews on various aspects of life. In cases where it is essential the employer can invite the potential employee to visit their office with a specific agenda fixed in advance and ensuring all the teams/individuals spare time to give them a view of job.  During the visit they can also look at the environment in which they are going to operate.

  1. Is OJP for Every job or certain job levels/job grades?

  2. Dear Charles, Thank you for your question. On-Job-Preview works well with Junior Level/1st Time Job Holders. However, based on the seniority and confidentiality that one need to maintain for the Individual/Organisation this can be modified to suit. Objective of the program would be to bring a realistic view of the job one is going to get into.

  3. It is said that "In work, we have the possibility of discovering ourselves"- on the job preview may help towards that as well. I have been through the husys website which is very comprehensive. Whether on the job preview or actual job, if one does not like one's job, don't you think there should be career transition services on the lines of www.careershifters.org or www.passioncatalyst.com. The whole purpose of HR is to make people productive- why are these services not offered in India. My blog blink has details of my published articles on the subject.

  4. Dear Curt Rosengren, Thank you for the inputs.. In most cases the Career Transition refers more provided by organisation when they are making people redundant as Outplacement. My experience from the Indian context most of the career transition services happen informally between the experts and seekers of support. There is a special need for providing such services in more organised fashion to help people to move and achive their objectives. thanks, GR Reddy

Capturing this spirit of New would be a good Idea for the CEO's. With the current market conditions the year 2012 is going to be a very exciting journey for every organisation.
