PRECONDITION - A SUCCESS OF SUCCESS
It is very important to prepare the "ground" for successful adaptation to the new work at the final interview stage. Think about your new position in advance. Among other important points, it is worthwhile to find out:
- What is the corporate style of the company?

- Why did this vacancy appear? And if the reason is the firing of an employee, try to find out why it happened.
- To whom it will be possible to address with arising questions.

NEW ENVIRONMENT. METHODS IN (LIFE) LIVING
The first time a beginner worried about two things: how to cope with new responsibilities and how to join the team.
With regard to official duties in a new place, you should be active, namely:
- Ask questions. It's always better to ask again than to redo the work with errors.
- Set goals and make a list of tasks. Discuss them with the boss, perhaps his advice will be useful to you.
- Show energy in work. If in the process you have difficulties, ask for instructions to more experienced colleagues.
Now about the team. At first, it makes sense to show restraint in communicating with new colleagues, so as not to harm yourself inadvertently. First of all:
- Meet the staff. Remember or write down the names. Do not forget about the smile, be attentive and affable.
- Study colleagues and try to determine their status in the team. Do not try to establish contact only with the leaders - because there is a chance that one of the slave will break through. Communicate only with those who are in the shadows, can prevent the growth of your career.
- Reconsider your habits and traditions associated with past work. This will help to avoid conflicts in the new place.
- Pay attention to the dress code. If it's customary to come to work in a business suit, put off your favorite jeans before the weekend. Respect the unspoken rules of the new collective.
Sometimes the desire to feel faster the notorious "fish in the water" is so great that it pushes some newcomers to ill-considered actions. What behavior should be avoided?
SEVEN ERRORS A NEW BABY
Consider the typical mistakes in establishing relationships with new colleagues.
- Make claims about the conditions. This behavior can irritate the colleagues who are accustomed to the given atmosphere.
- Praise the old place of work. This can be perceived as discontent with the new.
- Turn the soul "inside out" in front of colleagues. First, there is no need for outsiders to know about you any personal details; secondly, remember - sometimes people are dishonest.
- Participate in the discussion of the personal life of colleagues. A gossip's reputation is able to put a fat cross on a career.
- Find fault with yourself. The desire to appear in the best light can lead to the fact that you will present to yourself inflated demands. This approach threatens nervous exhaustion. It's worth it?
- To be attached to one person. The wider the circle of your communication, the faster and easier you will join the team.
- To demonstrate superiority is too open. Omniscient zaznak usually try to avoid. Let your talents and achievements be made public by success in work, not boasting.
Remember that the adaptation to the new workplace lasts about three weeks on average. Even if it's hard for you to get used to, try not to make serious conclusions during this time. There is a possibility that soon you will be glad that you did not succumb to the urge to leave. Or you will finally understand that you've wasted your time.
