MOTOROLA in Bulgaria

Local Entity established in 2001

Main Business Line: Wireless Networks

Working with major telecom operators and bringingstate of the art technology line coupled with world class quality services in all business lines to Bulgaria

Motorola has to focus on the core business with it's own resources and building term partnerships with 3rd parties

R & D partnership

Advantages:- Flexible teams, easy to increase quickly resource levels- Competitive rates among the lowest in Europe- Good skill set, no need for extensive training for software development. We have found that new hires are quick to come up to speed if they have an internal experienced mentor that knows the Motorola way- High maturity level organizations. CMM or CMMI level 5 maturity allows common language between engineering teams and easy exchange of technical information- Typically they provide a single point of contact to deal with technical and logistic issues Disadvantages- At times language barrier could represent a problem…


Universities partnership

Labor market trends

• Reduced interest in business critical skills like engineering studies and related professions in Western Europe while CEE is producing more engineers than the local market can consume• Battle for talent in Western Europe since 1999 but not to the same extent yet in CEE who seek work opportunities in the West• Observed increase in market demand for talents in CEE• Strong move with motivation factor from only benefits to technical challenges, projects content and knowledge increase

Trends indicate that by The number of high-tech 2010, there will be a global jobs is expected to grow serious shortage of both through at least 2010 experienced and universitytalent to match required

technology skill sets


Can we ensure a consistent university pipeline of Talent Supply Chain for key skills and competencies in the future?

Students indicate the most common mistakes are:

• Bad Intern Experience• Mediocre Website• Emphasizing the

Company, rather than the Opportunity

• Here Today – Gone Tomorrow Presence

• Poor Logistics• Unresponsiveness

“I want to know why I should work for you instead of someone else. . . and the answer is not that you have 2.4 billion dollars in sales. So what? What’s there for me? Is there a career path for me?”

“When a company doesn’t provide a good summer experience, I think it’s worse than not having a program at all.”

“Lack of communication to a recruit is a sign of a bad company and one you don’t want to work for.”

Universities hiring


Universities hiringHow we address students needs:

• Intern Experience (assignment; training, social programs)• Websites contain Students pages (encourage two-way

communication; on-line test in Russia allows check technical readiness of a student to join Motorola)

• Emphasizing the Opportunity, rather than the Company (speak about learning and training opportunities, as well as technologies at Company Days at Universities)

• Here Today and Tomorrow Presence Approach (project works from Motorola that follow internship)

• Dedicated Staffing / UR staff to take care of Logistics• Responsiveness: detailed feedback to students on their

technical interview results
