I want to apply for a supervisor position at my current company but in a different speciality of project type that better fits my career aspirations. I am nervous my company will be so worried about creating a hole / vacancy in my current account that they won’t support this. I wish I could be treated as if I was someone from outside the org fairly applying. Any advice?

Hi!
What’s more important to you - to follow your career aspirations or to stay in the same spot thinking how your company <might> have certain worries?
How can you create a win-win for both you and the company?
You may want to have an open chat with your Manager to discuss your goals. You may also want to suggest to your Manager to create a plan on how you can support them when it comes to finding someone to replace you in your current position and how you can support with their onboarding to make the transition as smooth as possible.

All the best :)

Btw, if you’d like to chat further, feel free to message me/connect on LI. I´m a Career Coach, happy to offer some additional insights.

Currently scheduling “on sites” for a S&O role in CA. My referrer said they can hire as L5 or L6. Would like to land in the L6 bucket as I’ve heard 5 --> 6 is one of the more challenging promotions.

I’m looking for info on what the real difference is in responsibilities (manager vs IC, cross functional vs focused, etc) so I can focus on checking the L6 boxes during my interviews.

I’m also curious about whether this is something that I should just discuss with my recruiter directly?
