✨ Starting a New Job? ✨
Starting a new role is exciting, but it’s not always smooth sailing. Here are a few common hiccups and how to tackle them with confidence:
💬 Not knowing who to ask for help – Don’t be afraid to introduce yourself and ask questions. Most people are happy to help a newcomer.
🧭 Feeling overwhelmed by information – Take notes and break tasks into manageable steps. It’s okay not to know everything straight away.
🤝 Struggling to connect with your team – Join in on chats, attend social events or virtual catch-ups and be open. Relationships take time.
🖥️ Tech troubles – Set up early and flag any issues with IT straight away to avoid delays.
📅 Unclear expectations – Book a check-in with your manager to clarify goals and priorities.
Stay positive, be patient with yourself and remember, you’re not expected to be perfect on day one!
