Employees often leave their company not due to not getting paid enough but because of the lack of opportunities for professional development or career advancement. Recruitment and selection process to replace them takes a lot of time and money. Employee career development paths might be a good solution here. Career development path is one of the elements of personnel planning – a logical and consistent sequence of positions that the employee can move to, provided the conditions required by the employer are met. Main goal of creating these career paths is on the one hand achieving personal goals and fulfilling employees’ ambitions, and on the other hand meeting the managers’ expectations.

Only few organizations are aware that a professional employee career development path should start already during onboarding – although some elements of the career path should appear earlier, even during the recruitment process. Onboarding is one of the key stages of the career development path – it is when the employee gets familiarized with his/her tasks, goals and promotion and development opportunities. In order for the career path to be clear for both parties (the employee and the supervisor), the organization must have its promotion criteria clearly defined. This aspect is worth discussing with the employees during the annual or quarterly performance reviews. Career development path without regular feedback will never be effective.
