1 or 2 days job shadowing, an informal, experiential learning on the work floor, can help you learn about the realities of working within a particular industry and be exposed to a company’s culture. This may help enhance your ability to make informed career choices, but will also feed into your high potential talent pipelining.
Job shadowing involves – amongst others:
- observing, and networking with, experienced professionals;
- conducting informal interviews to obtain information about a job functions and career advice;
- sitting in on staff meetings and/or staff trainings;
- taking a tour of the company premises.
