RECRUITMENT

Enel seeks people with the capability to innovate, who show initiative and dynamism and who are strongly motivated to joining a multicultural context. The selection procedure, which varies according to the nature of the position to be filled, foresees an initial attitude-motivation-based appraisal, followed by a second technical-professional appraisal. In particular, for the selection of junior positions group assessments (Assessment Center) are performed, in addition to English language tests and technical interviews, whilst for selection processes involving expert personnel attitude-based and technical interviews are carried out.

Induction is carried out with great care and commitment through a process in which training and work experiences are alternated, to ensure progressive knowledge of the organization and gradual integration into the company’s various working environments.

TRAINING

In order to support Enel’s becoming a market-driven multinational  Enel University was created, a structure dedicated to insertion and training throughout the company, which provides all of the company’s employees with training courses tailored to their individual professional profiles and various managerial needs. The various training initiatives include JET International (Junior Enel Training), a training programme aimed at new graduates who have been hired within the Group from all of the Countries Enel operates in, which provides not only introductory materials regarding economics, organiz­ations, and the energy business but which, above all, explores issues regarding integration and multiculturalism.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

In order to render the development path continuous, the young new hire takes part in the Online Assessment and Orientation roughly two years after joining the company. This initiative represents an opportunity to take stock of the quality of the insertion in a structured manner, the professional skills developed and the ability to respond in terms of performance. The experience acquired also makes it possible to take advantage of the individual’s professional orientation and envisage his/her future.
Moreover, Enel University has a particular focus on young employees, for whom it designs and implements professional induction paths for new hires.

This allows the company to guarantee the maintenance and development of core technical, professional and managerial skills as well as the development of tomorrow’s leaders.
