This topic is probably where I make the most problems for myself. Every company handles the first 30 days differently and I rely too much on who is training to tell me what to do next. No one has ever given advice on how to be a new employee. The work environment has changed so much that most employers just assume you will show up and be shovel-ready to just start working with little guidance.
On a small kiosk, one of my friends get employ by email. He shows up, make a cheaptalk with co-workers, sit on the place and start working like he knew the way around. He tell me the owner of this kiosk, is owner to many small kiosk. Tell me : the owner show with modest clothes and watch without getting notice, low profile and "secretly" check myfriend out.
He learn the ropes of the job within the day as hundreds of people walk to buy things. *if my english s... is because my mother lenguage is spanish*
So generally people hired most reliable person that should already move around like he is the one for that job. (this meant i agree with your statement plus i share a history)
I mean if you have experience in the field you probably should be shovel ready
If it had not been for this channel I wouldnât have landed my dream job!
Great advice! Another tip I'd like to add is sending Friday reports to your boss at the end of the day on Fridays. To summarize & detail the highlights of the week, what you've learned & done etc. It's a great way to maintain communication with your boss, & keep you in their good books as someone who goes above & beyond on their job.
Literally starting a new job in middle management on Monday. The best and most on time recommendation ever. Thank you Sir
I finally got a job after months of job hunting! Thanks for all the tips! Iâm about to start a new job and this video comes in handy! Thank you once again!
Glad to help!
Great timing! I got a new job and will start this monday.
Congratulations!
What a coinkydink. I start Monday as well.
Same !
Congratulations!!!
Perfect timing! I just switched careers, after spending 12 years in my last one (and growing very disillusioned with it), and I just had my first (short, because of the holiday) week in the new job. It was basically all training and having short Zoom meetings (new job is remote) with various people Iâll be working with. So going forward, I want to succeed in this and not waste this opportunity (new job/career has a lot more potential for growth and advancement than my last one). So thanks!
Thanks for the content! Very helpful.
Video idea: Things you can do for damage control if you missed the mark on making a good first impression.
Great tips. Iâd love to see something tailored to temporary contractors (whoâd love to eventually become permanent). Main difference is â hit the ground runningâ while still doing all the things you mentioned, learning, etc.
My last employerâs expectations: taking the project managers off on-call rotation and making it my full time responsibility. My resignation was in the next day. No one can be on call 365 days a year, 24 hours a day AND be highly productive during the day/week.
I work in an environment right now where I don't have to play "the tough guy employee" role and I can actually vent a tiny bit. I had an evaluation meeting where my boss told me to "speak freely" about my job (ofc I had a pretty strict filter on but was able to get some problematic points across), and my boss worked with me and came up with a solution for the following weeks coming up. I'm not saying you should dump every problem on them or anything, but some genuine feedback what is and isn't working can help.
Well timed video. I haven't started my dream job, but I am working towards it. Having this in my back pocket is good!
The single best on-the-job career advice I've ever seen.
I left my job due to layoffs and bad management. I applied to other places and here you are in my feed!
I start Monday đ, thank you for this!
Congratulations!
Your content is some of the best I ever ran across for career tips and tricks. Thank you for being straight to the point, and for providing true insights on what you need to focus on to be successful!
Great stuff here, some of these I was doing naturally at my current job - these are very helpful, I wrote them down!
Really good tips! Thanks Brian!
Thanks for this. Very helpful.
I did land my dream job 2 days ago!!!!! 3 month contract to hire, so I have to kick some butt!
Dude your channel is gold!
Just landed a new job. Thank you for sharing.
â€â€â€ Thanks Brian positive advice
This is really great advice. Well done.
Your videos are always so well timed :-)
Thank you!!
Great advice!
Same here as @limelight81 & @TheSwiftFalcon. Just received the "you are in" email yesterday. After today's paperwork for the new position just found the video. Super amazing !!!
May I suggest a possible topic for a video?
Workplace friendships.
Do you believe in them? Carry on with them after you or the other person leaves? Go to the office to work and only interact with people when you absolutely need to?
Personally don't believe or like workplace friendships. Already spend 40 hrs plus unpaid lunchtime (2.5-5 hrs) a week with them, don't want to see them more than I need to.
Great question! Would love to hear his take on this. IMO, it depends on the workplace. In my extremely toxic environment (which I am leaving Thursday, woo hoo!) friendships and things shared in confidence have been leveraged against me for others to âget ahead.â Iâm sure most people or places arenât like this but if lazy people who arenât good at their jobs can elevate themselves and push others down, they will!
@limelight81 I'm professional, but not necessarily friendly if I don't need to, to be honest
@@paige2567 hell yeah! Glad you're getting out of there!
I did 1.5 years at an orange hued home improvement store and made 2-3 friend-acquantances which I've seen like 2 times each in the 2 and a half years since I quit. My current job is remote for the moment but they want to bring my group in first week of august. Really don't want to deal with neighbors at my desk or bumping into people at the break room or bathroom and having to do small talk. Much easier to ignore and just do what they pay me for while ignoring slack tbh.. Not a very social person as you an see âą_âą''
Good good job advice on what to do when starting a new job.
I recommend using a Franklin Planner, Daytimer, or any other convenient hard-copy record, no batteries required and doesn't crack if dropped.
You generate a paper trail as tasks progress (or not), and keeps deadlines more visible. It is also a big stress reliever: future tasks can be inked-in on future dates allowing the here and now to be concentrated upon. It will be less likely that things will fall through the cracks.
I start a new role next month. I already have requested for two weeks minimum 1 2 1 training as although im familiar with the duties required, there are some nuanced software requirements unique to the company
Watching this video should form part of the induction process!
man this is timely and extremely helpful... but its so damn demanding
I also saw a video from Joshua that never give 100% in your first days as a new employee. Chances are high that the boss will use that on you. Do what's necessary and play the game.
Love to hear your thoughts on this.
Do you best everyday, why hold back?
@@machinestats459 Because if you start at 100% you're going to have to stay there, and it's not going to reflect significantly on your salary anyway, as long as you meet expectations.
Keep in mind that your goal is to maximize salary and minimize work, your employer's goal is to minimize salary and maximize work. If you're not part of that game, then you are likely missing out in some regard, depending on workplace regulation in your country.
Serious question: What was your dream before you ended up as a corporate recruiter and how did you become one?
I love your eyes đ thatâs all I wanted to say. Now I will watch the video.
I have a new recruiter pushing me for what I would consider my ultimate dream job. I have the skills to do the job, but it is in a new industry. We're only 5 days into the first wait. I passed the recruiter and got him on my side. Now I need to get the company. How do you switch industries, but have the skills? I'm high tech 3D graphics, but spent all my time locked in the government contracting side handed off contractor to contractor. The recruiter is in the medical community. I am stoked to do my part in high tech in a new community. Is this really possible? or a pipe dream?
Good tips, I have only had temporary jobs via employment agencies, at different companies, so I have never had to do this. I have a disability and have asked for help or advise because of my speech is not clear I been blanked .
I'd love if you could answer a question... im killing it my first few months.... so how do I approach opportunity/hunting for another position within the company?? My coworkers and boss is very supportive and it's a healthy work environment. So I DO think they would support me, but what is generally acceptable for seeking an opportunity instead of it seeking me? Thanks :)
A few months and your ready to bounce?
May I suggest a possible topic for a video?
What would you do if you want to go for a more challenging role but you have not finish your probation? Should you rise this to your line manager or I should not consider it?
smile thats a good one. its work not fun.
Need some advice⊠Iâm coming on 2 years out of college and I am making a lot less than everyone on my team even though I put perform them. I love my boss and company just want to be compensated more⊠how should I go about starting this conversation with my boss?
Are you sure you are outperforming them? How do you know what everyone else is making?
I started a new job but I donât think my co workers like me any advice?
What about for blue collar employees? Not everyone works in an office
Iâm gonna try this for my McDonaldâs job
Come to me with solutions not more problems..... Right on! It is not personal, it is only business. You are right, if I am paying someone for something, you better make it work. Also, you get emotional and you lose, don't. You have two ears and one mouth, use them accordingly. Shut up, observe, and listen. Always act like someone is watching you; you are always under surveillance..... You might say, "what about my....." News, nobody gives a shait about your life, only your output and abilities to make your boss money..... This is my opinion of course.
Got career advice for felons?
These videos are gold. I'll simply continue to do the opposite and live my life as an unemployed bum!
I got a call back about a job I interviewed for. I told the lady "No thanks." "Why not?" she asked. Me: "Because working for you is wage slavery and I have no intention of renting myself to you."
Easy just Dont.
i had to wait 1: 40 sec for you to start making sense ....not cool
If this is an indicator of how much effort you put into your actual career, I don't think you'll be needing this video anytime soon.
@@phishhead231 Bloating vids for time is old, I jumped ahead also, and yes I have a good career.
"Those critical first few months" haha do any jobs last longer than a few months these days.
I've been employed in a med school as an invited lecturer. The job was exciting and new for me. Everything was going very well, I guess I was in a honeymoon phase. The evaluations by the students were great. Then they decided to give me an extra administrative work, as a token of appreciation I guess. The job was slightly out of my comfort zone, fair to say I didn't know much about it and I agreed on one term that I would grow into it. Unfortunately, all of this happened when pandemic has struck and I had difficulty communicating with my boss. Eventually, I thought that I made it work, but after 4 months I guess, they said that they're reconsidering my position and told me to leave after I was done with my project which I really cared about. I was very shocked and more so, was worried that I would lose the position as a lecturer as well. After summer holidays, my boss offered to take the position back with only minor changes(name of the position) and I took it, once again being afraid that saying no would cost me losing lecturer position. 10 months forward, my boss says that she doesn't know how to respond to the allegations against me that they don't know what they are paying me for. She after several days asked if I would prefer to transfer to another department in a nicer way. I don't know what to think. I guess that they really like me as a lecturer but not for my administrative position. The tricky point is that my boss in both cases is the same person. What should I do or even think? Was taking the job back a bad decision?
