Your first steps in the business world

While writing my last blog, I like to say that we have come a long way. We have seen various sorts of motivation, stress at work, bullying bosses, etc. So we can point out that the  employee-employer relationship is a far-reaching subject. 

For my final blog, I will concentrate me on new employees who are just landed in the labour market. In several years we will be one of those, stressed out to go to our first day at work. Hopefully we will already have made a good impression in the job interview. Unfortunately, it isn't always the boss who takes those interviews. Therefore, you have to stand out and impress your boss. In the first weeks you probably will be cautious and a silent listener, however, sometimes you must be creative and speak up to impress your  leader.
As ann-sophie already wrote, it’s important to be yourself. If you pretend to be someone else, your boss will not appreciate it.
To conclude, if you are polite and professional, you will make it to the top.
