First day at work
Hello,
Sharing with you an interesting blog posted on TalentEquity.in/blog
Dress smartly: One of the first thing that people notice is what you are wearing. Since you are not aware of the work culture yet, it is idea to wear smart and comfortable formals on the first day. Don’t be overtly jazzy with your choice of clothes. Remember you are there to work and not to impress.
Ask Questions: It’s always good to be inquisitive about the workplace and the work that you are expected to do. Ask many questions/clarifications as you want in order to get you fair idea about your work. Remember not to ask personal questions, because you donot know you may be offending someone.
Be Proactive: In order to make you comfortable your boss will not load you with all the work on your first day. But once you are comfortable with the work assigned, you can take initiative for more work related to your profile. It will highlight your sense of responsibility and your ability to work.
Be Friendly: There is a need to show that you are serious about your work, but that shouldn’t stop you from exchanging smiles and hellos with your colleagues. An informal introduction will also help you bond with your colleagues over coffee or lunch.
I am sure above points will help you settle comfortably in a new workplace. However some people take more time to settle down. It depends on the rate of adaptability and workplace approach. Do share your experiences about your first day at work.
Keep your feedback coming.:)
