How to have a good first day at a new job

Are you one of the many starting 2023 with a new job?

The last few months of 2022 were an exceptionally busy time in recruitment, with a record number of people accepting new positions to start the New Year.

Are you one of the many starting 2023 with a new job?

Here’s how to have an amazing first day!

Before starting your new role, do your homework. Search on LinkedIn and try to connect with as many new colleagues as possible. Also, read up on the latest news and projects involving the company.

Your first day will likely involve an induction process including setting up your computer and desk space. You’ll need to provide your paperwork including banking, tax and superannuation details, as well as copies of any relevant certifications, so remember to bring the information with you.

You will also be collaborating with the members of your new team, many of whom you may not have met previously. Prepare your introduction and be able to talk about yourself succinctly, including your previous work history as well as your personal interests.

Most importantly, enjoy the new job experience! Remember that you earned the job by being the best candidate. This is your chance to meet a new bunch of like-minded professionals and work on interesting projects aligned with your career path.
