How To Determine Your True Prospects At A Company

How do I determine my true prospects at a company?

You'll know that you have great prospects in your current company by a few key things that the employer will communicate to you. Number one, you'll hear on a pretty regular basis, “Great job! Well done!” You'll get more responsibility and additional projects that you'll be asked to lead or spearhead. That's also a very good indicator that you're becoming indispensable. If you're asked to lead a team of people, if you're asked to start supervising others, and assuming a leadership role, that's also a very, very good indicator that this company has long-range plans for you. If they also start sending you for continuing education and additional training, that's a good sign. They're not going to invest money in people they're not thinking of keeping around for a long time.
