Shadowing case

Shadowing is an informal way for someone to learn what it is like to perform a particular job at a
workplace. An individual follows around, or shadows, the worker already in that role.

Job shadowing opportunities can be made available to new or junior employees, but they also may be
taken up by lateral hires from another part of an organization who need to get up the learning curve
quickly in their new roles. Shadowing has a finite period or is meant to last only as long as necessary—
that is, until the person new to the role feels comfortable enough to handle the responsibilities on his or
her own.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Shadowing occurs when a new hire learns what it is like to execute particular workplace tasks by closely
observing a more experienced staff member.
Shadowing may also apply to existing employees who are looking to laterally transfer to a different
department within their company.
Shadowing is often seen in internships and is seen as a more cost-effective way of job training.
Understanding Shadowing
Shadowing an employee at work gives the new hire (or future role-taker) an idea of what a typical day is
like in those shoes. Suppose a fresh college graduate with a degree in computer science begins work at a
tech company. This company has a shadowing program for its new employees, assigning them to senior-
level employees who have mentor-like qualities (i.e., they enjoy teaching and are patient).
