    Tracks change process


    Default track assigned to trainee
    A trainee is by default allocated to the track in which he or she has been trained
    during the CATP and based on the vertical/Horizontal allocation.
    Change of default track
    In case of any changed business requirement / technology, the Business Unit
    decides on changing the dovetail track of a trainee. Any change from the default
    track should be relevant to the trainees current project engagement or the
    long-term career growth path of the trainee.
    Track change is entertained only if there is a compelling business case
    associated with it.
    The trainee should send an approval mail from the supervisor to the Dovetail
    helpdesk team requesting enablement of track change in ELM.
    Change of track needs to be initiated within 2 weeks from the day of dovetail
    enrollment

    Performance Management
    The trainee needs to clear Dovetail certification (i.e. successfully clear
    Phase I and Phase II assessments) before the completion of 11th month
    from Date of Joining (DOJ) in order to be eligible for confirmation.
    Obtaining Dovetail certification only does not guarantee confirmation. It
    is one of the eligibility criterion.
    If the trainee has not cleared Dovetail assessments, his or her
    performance document will not be generated and the supervisor will be
    intimated of the same.
