Career Prospects at BCD Group

Time spent within the company to assist in moving up the ranks

Since interviewing I have not had any discussion on how to move up the ranks/promotion possibilities. In saying that, I have not been here for a long period of time and in addition am also beginning to take on harder jobs.

they knowledge and experience is what you need to move up as well as a close and good relationship with the people around you and your mangers

i guess once i learn a bit more and can apply for my cpeng after 6 years or something.

The company is still growing so there is plenty of opportunities to move up within the company and also be involved in a range of projects. I simply have to let my team leader know of my goals and they help formulate a plan to help support my career goals.

After i have completed the steps required at a graduate level i can become a Junior draftsman, then move to an intermediate draftsman and eventually a senior draftsman , there is not set time limit on this and it solely depends on milestones i make and my learning. There is the opportunity to become a drafting manager or a project manager as well.

I am not quite sure yet.

I imagine after a few years they will want me to be a mentor for future grads/interns and take on more reviewing roles

Moving into project management I assume comes with a pay increase, as well as becoming CPEng certified
