Conversation Leader
The myCareer Process - Conversation Leader
The myCareer conversation is a four part process which takes place over a calendar year. Each year you will begin a new myCareer conversation and therefore a new template. Storage is different in each Faculty and Division. You and your conversation leader will keep a copy. If your HR team would like a copy they will let you know.
Please see below for a detailed process on how to get started with myCareer.
