The brilliant new hire already on the way out

Il neoassunto brillante che è già in uscita · HR & People · Advanced

The case

A talent hired four months ago with high expectations tells you in a one-on-one that he is weighing an external offer: he feels underused, his manager assigns him junior-level tasks, and the project promised during the hiring interview never started. The manager claims he must first prove he can handle the basics. The external offer expires in ten days. What do you do?

Un talento assunto quattro mesi fa con grandi aspettative ti dice in un colloquio individuale che sta valutando un'offerta esterna: si sente sottoutilizzato, il manager gli affida compiti da junior e il progetto promesso al colloquio di assunzione non è mai partito. Il manager sostiene che deve prima dimostrare di saper fare le basi. L'offerta esterna scade tra dieci giorni. Cosa fai?
