How
to Succeed on the Job |
Congratulations,
you have landed the job of your dreams! After all
the hand-wringing, worrying, and pacing by the phone,
you got THE job. That's great! However, you
suddenly realize that you will really need to impress
the boss on the job. After all, he
hired you instead of all those other candidates. Don't
let panic set in just yet. Follow these job tips,
and you'll be on your way to turning your job into a
career.
- Appearance matters.
Dress and groom yourself appropriately.
- Pay attention to trends,
whether it's a new food product, advanced kitchen
equipment, or the ups and downs of the nation's
economy.
- Network through professional
organizations or associations.
- Do not spend time with
people who are viewed negatively by
management. The association is enough to give
you a bad reputation too. The opposite is also
true. Spend time with people who are
well-liked, and you will be viewed positively.
- Put in extra time if needed,
and make sure your supervisor is aware that you will
go the extra mile.
- Ask for more responsibility
and training. Your manager will view you as a
serious worker and a team player interested in
helping the company grow and succeed.
- If you experience a problem
with a co-worker or manager, do not complain about
it to everyone within earshot. Ask your
manager or your manager's boss for a meeting to
explain what is happening and how you think it can
be resolved. Complaining will only reflect
poorly on you
