Career growth is very important in everyone’s lives. It is an inherent need we all have to progress in all we do. It is quite unfortunate that jobseekers and new recruits go into their new jobs blind and without much direction and thought. It is important for jobseekers to have mentors and trusted partners to guide them through these times.
