Starting a New Job

Things you should do

•  Plan your outfit the day before.  Make sure you are dressed appropriately for your new job
•  Arrive in good time.  Leave home early, if necessary, to give yourself the chance to make
   up time caused by traffic or transport delays
•  Walk in with your head up.  If you feel confident you will look confident
•  If you are unsure about something or don’t understand something, ask questions now –
   rather than later

Things you should not do

•  Arrive late
•  Talk about office politics or criticise your former boss or other staff
•  Eat garlic, onions or any other foods that may make your breath smell
•  Smoke immediately before attending the workplace
