Your Commitment
Progression of Career at Wissen
Your career path at Wissen will basically have five phases:
0. Basic Training
1. Induction and HR Training and Evaluation
2. On-the-job Training
3. Self Sustaining Growth Phase
Basic Training:
Once selected, you will have to undergo External Training. The Security Deposit paid at the time of interview will be used for the training. You will be evaluated on the basis of your grasp of what has been taught in the external training before you go into the next phase of internal training and induction.
Induction and HR Training and Evaluation
Once the earlier stage is cleared, you will go through a rigorous program of internal training that includes among others HR, Compliance and Security Policies, specifics of role-specific methodologies as applicable to the client environment. You will be tested on ALL the topics you have been trained in and clearing these papers is a must to qualify for the next phase.
On-the-job Training:
Once your ability to learn, pick up speed and your ability to implement what you have learnt in your actual job is proven, you will be put on training. This training will be in continuation of and in addition to the training that you would have already acquired in the earlier phases. In this phase you will actually start doing tasks other than the basic ones you would have done in the earlier phase. This will require you to be more independent than before and you will be expected to refer and make your own documentation and most importantly practice the standards of excellence as spelt out by our clients and the company, without being supervised and reminded.
Self Sustaining Growth Phase:
Once you are through the Training Phase you are expected to start working independently. By this time you are likely to be fairly confident of your abilities and would have arrived at the point of motivating yourself. You would also acquire knowledge required for your job and are on a self-learning path. You will be able to define your own goals within and outside the organization and can now grasp for something you can envision and dream. Your responsibilities within the organization will start to grow and your leadership skills will now be honed and deployed, depending upon your attitude.
This is when you will start making worthwhile contribution to yourself, to the company and to the client.
Those who have completed their commitment period at Wissen are now gainfully employed in major organizations handling big responsibilities and drawing handsome salaries. You, if you meet the standards and put in the hard work expected of you, can dream to be in that position, with absolute confidence.

FAQ:
* Why a commitment period to the Company?
We are sure you will appreciate the fact that there is a lot of training involved in the making of a Software Engineer. To start from scratch and arrive at the point where others would normally be five years later means a lot of time & effort from the company. It would be fair to assume that in the first one and a half years, you will be taking from the company without giving anything in return. For the company to recover the training expenses, you would have to put in a service of at least two years after you get trained. Remember, you are starting from the scratch and it is in your interest as well to stick to the company and grow within the company before starting to sell your skills.
* Why registration?
Uncomfortable topic as it is, it needs to be addressed - fairly and squarely. We have had candidates making it to final stage of interview and go back on the commitment and tell us on our faces that they had come just for the heck of attending the interview - to gain experience. We are sure, had you known what it is to be without a job, you would jump at the offer and go for it. At this time, the onus on the management is not only to ensure an efficient and effective recruitment program but also see to it that a fair chance is given to the persons who are genuinely interested in joining.
* Am I expected to work in the Night Shifts?
Yes. We offer support to our clients on a 365x24x7 and need personnel on this basis.
* Do I have to pay any money other than the registration fee and the Training Fee?
No, you are not required to pay any amount other than the following:
--- Registration fee of Rs.100 is to be paid before the Screening Test.
--- Security Deposit of Rs.15,000 is to be paid if you are selected in the Group Discussion and go on to the Technical Interview.
- If you do not make it to the next round this amount will be paid back to you after the results are announced.
- If selected, the amount would be utilized towards the fee for external training in Database Administration.
- If selected and you do not join after the selection, you will have to forego the amount.
