Your First Job? Avoid These 10 Mistakes

3. Being Hesitant In Asking For Help:

Despite one’s educational background, one does require the help of others at some point of time or the other. Asking for help is inevitable because new employees are not well versed with all the aspects of work. Getting stuck and making mistakes are, hence, unavoidable. Not approaching one’s peers and seniors in cases of confusion or mistakes is a major error on the part of an employee. Asking for help from experienced employees is not a matter of shame and should not be perceived so by new employees. Asking for help only projects trust in people and has got nothing to do with less intelligence.

 

4. Not Monitoring Your Updates And Posts:

In this tech savvy world, social networking sites are just a click away. New age phones have made it even easier to connect with our friends at any given time of the day. Hence, posts and tweets have become an integral part of our lives. Our daily lives exist online like an open book. Even if one does not have one’s boss in the friends list, it is still advisable to not post anything derogatory regarding office atmosphere or people on one’s profile. Posts might not be read by one’s boss but it might be read by people of other companies. So, it is always better to be cautious in this regard than repent later on.
