Yeah, I suppose I should have added in my post that I assume that is the normal way, but was hoping for any more potential tips.
My biggest tip would just be to make it abundantly clear in your interview that this is a goal of yours. Some jobs will bounce you for that, but that’s good- you want to filter those out. Others will see it as a positive and you’ll come in with your manager and leadership already understanding the direction you want to grow in.
Yeah, except that "switch to EM" may not be easy. How many such opportunities you might have depends on the company.
