Your Career Service presents this article about how to make a successful start on your new job because success will be judged by the impression you make during the all-important first week. How to make a good impression and survive your first week at work? By hitting the street running in order to make a successful start and to prevent the first week from becoming your last.<\/p>\n

When you make a great first impression at work, you’ll achieve a good and lasting imprint. Just follow these four rules on your first week —<\/p>\n

1. Make sure you and your boss are on the same page by reviewing your job description together. And talk<\/a> to other employees who have held the same job. Ask supervisors for tips that will make you a better performer.<\/p>\n

2. Your first week is also the time to develop office relationships<\/a>. But do not share intimate secrets. Your co-workers are also you competitors. For example, if a dozen of you are in a training program, only a few may end up getting the super positions.<\/p>\n

3. Remember to carry a notebook to record what goes on at meetings. Your manager will consider it a sign of respect that her words are worth writing down.<\/p>\n

4. After meetings, take a few minutes to review what you heard. Then chat with the person who led the meeting to restate your understanding of the action plan.<\/p>\n
