Can I ask for a role change to better align with my career goals?
Yes, it’s common to request a role change if your current role doesn’t align with your long-term career aspirations.
If your current role is not in line with your long-term career goals, it’s reasonable to request a role change. Before approaching your manager or HR, identify open positions within the company that suit your skills and career path. Clearly explain why you’re interested in the new role and how it aligns with your professional development. Emphasize your commitment to the company and how this change will benefit both you and the organization. Many companies prefer to promote internal growth and are open to making such transitions if it helps retain talented employees.
