Hi all!
I'm currently a TSS part-time and have finally hit my 90-day mark. I've been very vocal with my AP-ETL about wanting to be promoted within for an HR position. I already work full-time in HR. I took the TSS position to make more money on the side but developed an interest in being here more long-term. My AP-ETL was fully onboard. My SD even came and talked to me and was onboard with it as well. During my 90 check-in, my AP-ETL told me that our ETL-HR said to wait until after quarter 4, possibly early 2024. I was a bit hesitant about this info so I spoke to my ETL-HR to get a better understanding. However, HR told me that he never said that and I could apply anytime. He told me I should apply as an HR Expert or a HR TL where available, but he doesn't think I'd get an ETL role. At this point, I was getting too many different answers. I finally just applied for some ETL-HR, HR TL, and HR Specialist roles. I ended up getting a virtual interview request for an HR TL role and was contacted by a recruiter for one of the HR ETL roles I applied for. He told me that my application passed the initial review and is being sent to the hiring manager and HR leader. I'm so happy I took it into my own hands instead of listening to everyone around me. I know it's hard going from TM to ETL or a Corp role so I'm grateful that my ETL application is even being considered. Has anyone else gone from TM to ETL? How long did the process take? This position is in my district and I really want it. I know it's a lot of work, but I don't mind working.
