RULES OF THE LYTEN POLAND TALENT ACADEMY
Sample edition: November 2026 – April 2027 (6 months)*
3 development tracks: Engineering · Technical/Production · Business Support
§1. General provisions
These Rules set out the objectives, organizational principles, structure, and terms of participation in the “Lyten Poland Talent Academy” program (the “Program”), run by Lyten Poland Sp. z o.o. (“Lyten”) for its manufacturing plant. The Program enables participants to gain their first professional experience in a manufacturing environment and to make an informed choice of their further development track within the organization.
- Participant — a person admitted to the Program as a result of successfully passing recruitment and the Assessment Centre.
- Development track — one of the Program's three tracks, within which the Participant develops in a chosen area of specialization (see § 2).
- Assessment Centre (AC) — an assessment session evaluating competencies, values, and potential, serving as the basis for qualification to the Program and assignment to a development track.
The Program lasts 6 months. It is organized by the HR Department of Lyten Poland, in cooperation with the development track managers and the Leadership Team.
* The standard edition of the Program runs from November to April. The Organizer may launch subsequent editions on a different schedule, earlier or later, including mid-month starts — the specific dates of each edition are announced by the HR Department.
§2. Program objectives and development tracks
The Program pursues the following objectives:
- Enabling participants to gain their first professional experience in a manufacturing environment, under structured onboarding and mentoring support.
- uilding a consistent onboarding and development process for new employees of the manufacturing plant.
- Embedding Lyten's culture and values from the first day of participation in the Program.
- Providing every Participant with an individual development plan and an informed choice of their further track within the organization.
The Program offers three development tracks, each leading to a potentially different role within the organization, within which the Participant develops in a chosen area of specialization:
- Engineering — an area of specialization within engineering (e.g. quality, process, or product engineering).
- Technical / Production — an area of specialization within maintenance and production, with a prospective development path towards the Technician role.
- Business Support — one of the business directions (e.g. HR/Administration, supply chain/purchasing, finance/PMO).
The decision to assign a Participant to a development track is made jointly — by the Participant and Lyten's representatives (HR and managers) — after the Assessment Centre, based on the assessment results, the Participant's preferences, and the organization's current needs. The specific area of specialization within the track is refined during the Program, jointly with the mentor and the track manager.
§3. Qualification to the Program
Candidates are recruited through an application process run by the HR Department and Talent Acquisition. Qualification to the Program is based on the Assessment Centre — a one-day assessment session conducted by HR, managers, and representatives of technical departments, covering: teamwork and individual problem-solving, a technical assessment matched to the track, and a conversation about the candidate's values and motivation.
Based on the Assessment Centre results, each candidate receives a recommendation for one of the three development tracks, in accordance with the principles set out in § 2.
§4. Evaluation and completion of the Program
During the Program, the Participant receives regular feedback from the mentor and the track manager, based on progress in tasks and rotations and alignment with Lyten's values. On this basis, a decision is made on whether the Participant continues in the Program, receives an additional development plan, or exits the Program.
Employment under the Program ends upon expiry of the Program period. For the best Participants, there is a possibility of employment following completion of the Program — this decision is made after the Program ends and depends on Lyten's current business needs and the Participant's performance during the Program. The recommendation regarding a Participant's further role within the organization takes into account the chosen development track and area of specialization (see § 2), and final recommendations are subject to approval by the Leadership Team.
§5. Contact with candidates and communication rules
Communication with candidates at every stage of the process is conducted by the HR Department in coordination with Talent Acquisition and the track managers. Every candidate receives information about the recruitment decision — positive or negative — regardless of its outcome.
