The company is a recruiting agency that does projects for pg&e. I will be a part of a team of 8 new hires. Apparently the project requires 2 leads chosen from the 8. I was chosen to be one of them based on my interview. It included a slight raise from their initial offer. I was wondering if anyone can offer any tips as this is my first job out of college and I have no experience leading a group.
Heard terrible things about pge. Basically no one works and everyone’s just doing their own job.
This sounds terrible you may have no opportunity to learn or have mentors
Sorry I didn’t describe it well enough. It’s an existing project. Every year they add a new team as is it is growing so I will have mentors.
It is an office job
Communication, communication, and more communication. Talk to your team about both wins and failures. Find out what they believe their strengths to be and what you perceive their strengths to be. What drives them and what they like about the job. Having a team that is loyal to you will take you far.
Beware high voltage.
