Ep161: 7 tips for starting a new job.
In this episode, Mei Phing shares seven key things to do when starting a new job, including getting to know colleagues, learning how to do your job effectively, staying calm and focusing on key responsibilities, and being patient with the process of success.
Key Highlights
🤝 Building positive relationships with colleagues is crucial for a successful start in a new job. Remembering names and making an effort to get to know your team will be appreciated.
🗣️ Scheduling a 1:1 catch-up session with your boss is essential to align expectations and understand what is expected of you in your new role.
📚 Familiarizing yourself with company policies and procedures will help you understand the standards and expectations, enabling you to focus your efforts effectively.
🎯 Learning how to do your job the right way, based on the expectations set by your boss, is important for delivering high-quality work and gaining trust within your team.
❓ Asking questions in the first 30 days is crucial as people tend to be more patient with new employees. However, be resourceful and ask well-researched questions to demonstrate your commitment and understanding.
💪 Staying calm and focusing on key responsibilities will help you build confidence and trust with your team. Avoid rushing success and concentrate on delivering your assigned tasks effectively.
⏳ Success takes time, and it is important to be patient. Continuously work on enhancing your mindset and skillset to increase your value and open up more opportunities in the future.
