Guidance from job tag (Japanese)
入職にあたって、特に学歴や資格は必要とされない。
 入職後は、基本的な研修を受け、その後は実際に作業をしながら技能・技術を習得していくのが一般的である。最近は、組付部品の指示にはコンピューターが用いられ、組み付ける際の位置もセンサーで正確に計算するので勘や経験に頼ることは少ない。未経験者でも研修を受ければ作業に入ることができることが多い。あとは先輩の指導を受けながら経験を積んで熟練度を上げていくことになる。経験を積むと、班長、ライン長などの管理・監督職に昇進していく。キャリアパスとしては、上記のように部門内でキャリアアップしていくほかに、社内の認定基準を満たして完成車両検査員になるなど、他部門へ異動するケースもある。
 長時間の立ち仕事が多いので、一定の体力が必要である。同じ作業を繰り返し行う仕事なので、持続力や注意力も求められる。
 ベテランになるに従って、単一作業にとどまらない複数の作業を習得し、さらに工場生産についての全体の仕組みと自動車の構造を熟知した上で生産方法の改善を考える力や、後輩を指導しチームとしての成果を上げる力が求められるようになる。
