Starting A New Job
When you first start a new role you will probably want to make a big effort with your new colleagues so that you fit in well. This article examines some things to bear in mind when you are starting a new role.
Often lots of new starters fail to last in their role for more than a year, a big reason for this is that a large proportion of new employees are not given a clear enough picture of what is expected of them and what their goals for the next six months are. Often they are also not told where to find all the information they need and therefor spend lots of time researching instead of asking their colleagues and bosses.
Often people discuss so-called 'red flags' which can indicate that you might not be successful within the role. One of these 'red flags' are if you are uncertain as to what you are aiming for within your role. Another 'red flag' is often new employees speak too much instead of listening, never assume anything.
If there are 'office politics' situations arising it can be difficult to decide what to do. There are a number of things you can do including trying to understand the reasons behind the hostility and attempting to change the conversation topic when awkwardness arises. If all else fails you should just attempt to rise above it and ignore the remarks.
The first twelve weeks are often the most significant in your career at a new company. You should aim to impress during this period. Often the first 12 weeks are probationary, so it is definitely worth making an extra effort.
Starting a new role can be extremely nerve racking but the best thing to do is to aim to remain as calm as possible and view your new role as a chance to meet new people and achieve more goals, rather than an awkward and stressful event.
