5 AWESOME TIPS THAT WILL HELP YOU EXCEL IN YOUR FIRST JOB
Working a first job is an exciting adventure that you will never forget.
You will always remember your experiences in the employment world, whether they are positive or negative.
Being clear on the five most fruitful ways to excel at your first job will help you succeed.
Read through these five tips and use them to keep your head high and above the water as you work:
1 REMEMBER: YOU ARE LAST
The most important thing to remember on your first job is that you are last on the list of importance.
You must always conduct yourself in the best light possible with your employer, co-workers and customers.
You are on the job to perform a service to other people, so do your job with humility and motivation.
2 GO WITH A SMILE
Practice smiling in the mirror at home so you will get used to it!
Smiling is not only contagious, but also it can put you in a positive mood.
3 ALWAYS LISTEN TO INSTRUCTION
Every day on your first job is an opportunity for you to learn one of life’s lessons. Listen to what the people who surround you are teaching you.
Try to nurture the positive skills that you receive from them and disregard negativity.
You can obtain skills such as: • Customer service • Escalation prevention • Sales techniques • Various additional “people” skills
4 EXPRESS INTEREST IN ADVANCEMENT
You must let your employer know thatyou enjoy your work and would like to advance.
If you let that person know of your interests ahead of time, he or she may start shaping you for success.
Many businesses already have an idea of the direction they want to take workers in …
… but the course of events may change for you if you let your desires be known earlier rather than later.
5 AVOID NEGATIVE ACTIONS
As an employee, you will always want to represent the company you work for in a positive fashion.
Examples of negative activities and actions that may occur in the workplace are: • Gossiping • Berating • Backstabbing • Arguing • Judging
When customers step into a business, they want to see the image of harmony and confidence.
They want to know that the place of business they entered is an environment that they can trust.
If they see too much negativity, they may leave the establishment. • Negativity tends to spread like a disease inside the workplace, as well.
One negative person can bring the entire establishment down. • Try your best to be the light that shines on your first job.
It could start you off on the path to great success and accomplishment.
