How to Start a New Job Successfully – Green Career Institute

Starting a new job is always going to be a little daunting. Will you get on with everyone? Will the work be too challenging? Will you like working for the company? There are lots of variables that could affect your experience. However, if you follow these tips, you are more likely to be successful:

Be positive. Don’t complain or act like you cannot do the job. It is all about mental attitude. If you believe you can succeed, others will too.
Be friendly. Smile at people, talk to them and ask questions. Be careful not to just talk at people. Ask them about themselves and their roles.
Have a can-do attitude. Show that you are willing to go out of your way and that you are enthusiastic about doing so.
Remain professional. By all means, talk to people and ask them questions. Don’t divert too much from work though. Make sure people see you as the true professional you are.
