Starting tips for your new job

• Impress – familiarise yourself with company literature, procedure and website, if available. Knowing your job description will also help you to settle in quickly and the more you know what is expected of you, the easier it will be to exceed your new employer's expectations.
• Look the part – dress professionally with a neat and presentable appearance.
• Be a success – be positive, polite, friendly and an immediate team player, no matter what your new position. Get involved and be busy and don't badmouth a previous employer – you could give the impression that it's how you would treat your new employer.
• Be patient – starting the new job can feel a little like being thrown in at the deep end, but you'll find your feet and become familiar with your new surroundings and responsibilities soon enough.
