Abstract

One of the most important factors in the successful development of modern IT companies is an effective and flexible personnel policy that can ensure the continuous recruiting of new employees and introducing them to professional activities. The article examines the issues of professional development of newcomers in modern IT projects, determines the factors of its success and analyzes the essence of the phenomenon of onboarding in the context of its relation to such constructs as "adaptation", "mentoring" and "tutoring". Onboarding is considered, on the one hand, as a phenomenon that reflects the systematic purposeful interaction between a social organization and its new employee, which aims to integrate a new team member with existent working conditions and ensure their productive performance in the shortest possible time, and on the other - as a partnership between an experienced employee (mentor) and a new specialist for the purpose of training, support, and professional development facilitation. The work contains an analysis of specialized software for successful onboarding in the conditions of modern IT projects. It also reveals the results of an empirical study of onboarding in IT projects with the participation of experienced mentors and young professionals, the results of which revealed the main factors of successful adaptation of newcomers to the new conditions of their professional activity: regulation of onboarding and mentoring processes in the project team and IT companies using internal regulatory documents, specialized software, etc.; productive cooperation between the mentor and the novice, which involves the analysis of project documentation, implemented through reflective technologies and aimed at understanding the new employee's expectations and requirements for their professional performance, communication, behavior in the project team; professional competence of the mentor, which is determined by their experience in project activities, deep understanding of the project and processes in it, as well as non-technical skills (communicative, emotional, regulatory, cognitive and metacognitive).
