Integrate In The New Team!When you change jobs keep in mind the first days are all you get to make your new colleagues like you. This article will teach you some things about how to act during your first days at work and please be convinced they are indeed crucial. Accommodation period takes at least three months, during which people wonÕt judge you according to your professional achievements, but to your image. Try to respect the dress up policy that the company you work for promotes, but do it in such a way that makes you look good Š this will give you more confidence in yourself. Despite all the stress and the worry that you deal with, your attitude must be relaxed, must communicate self trust. In what concerns the dialogs with your colleagues, donÕt be shy, let them know things about you, but do not tell everything Š save a little mystery. However, during the period of accommodation, never talk about your previous job in a bad manner; donÕt say how efficient or less efficient working there really was etc. Remember that you are not working there anymore and all your comparisons are annoying. Also, hold yourself from giving advice or from making observations Š the new people at the office canÕt enjoy this privilege. Another important issue: donÕt complain Š at least, not from the very beginning. The coffee is too strong, your desk is not well positioned, you have too many duties and the list can go on Š imagine your own opinion about somebody acting like this from the first days of work. The ideal thing during the first day would be for your boss to present you to other members of the office. In case he doesnÕt have the time to do it, donÕt isolate yourself. Go and introduce yourself to the others, tell them youÕre member of the team etc. Try to learn everybodyÕs name as soon as possible. They will all feel more important, if you do that and they will like you more. Once you started work, open your eyes widely and listen to everything that is going on around you. Take advantage especially of the lunch and coffee breaks. During those moments people are more relaxed and they speak openly. This way you can find out the unwritten rules of the company, who owns the power, what kind of conflicts and complaints there are in your department etc. No matter what, try no to be late during your first days at work; prepare yourself for the meetings, by trying to anticipate what problems will be discussed etc.; respect the deadlines; donÕt talk about your personal problems or about your sexual life; think positive, smile a lot and show everybody you look forward to starting work; donÕt make promises unless you are sure you can respect them; work fast and well; donÕt talk to your colleagues about the salary you negotiated or about your promotion intentions. Nevertheless, in spite of all the emotions you have to go through, donÕt forget your main purpose: to do the job for which youÕve been selected as well as possible.
