| Tiivistelmä: | A qualitative, longitudinal study of two groups of experienced professional beginning work in a research organization provided insights into how newcomers with work experience adjust to and become assimilated into new work settings. Repeated interviews with them during their first six months in their new jobs revealed that their past experience affected their assimilation in three primary ways. In general, newcomers with diverse experience adjusted better than those with narrow experience because: 1. they found it easier to enact dimensions of their personal identities that allowed them to function effectively in the new situation, 2. they more easily found a fit btw. know-how gleaned from that experience and their new jobs, and 3. they could draw on wider variety of personal tactics that they had previously used to help them adjust. |
