Straight from The Midtown Mouth - Some tips on making sure you get off on the right foot.
1. Check your interview notes. Just make sure you know everyone's names and titles.
2. Work full days. A good habit is to get where you need to be 30 minutes early and leave after your co workers so you can understand their scheduling habits.
3. Project positive energy. Happiness and good attitude are contagious.
4. Look good. Dress tastefully, groom well.
5. Be flexible. Brace yourself for anything and you'll find you'll be less stressed when the challenge comes along.
6. Show appreciation. Who hates to hear a sincere "thank you"?
7. Listen 80%, Talk 20%. Make sure you're listening and not just waiting to talk.
8. Connect with colleagues and be a team player. This will help increase your visibility in the company and establish networks that could come in handy for advice or support.
9. Take initiative. Ask for more work if you can handle it, this can also increase your visibility and make you indispensible.
