Your New Job

by David Meyer

Career management consultant John Lees provides a detailed blueprint for your first 100 days in a new job. Those in their first job should heed his advice even longer than that.

Career management consultant John Lees explains how and why you must hit the ground running, make a good first impression and deliver quickly at your new job. He shows you how to make the most of your transition into a new position by being strategic about how you show up during your first 100 days. Lees covers deciding whether to take a job, enhancing your career, building your reputation, understanding your new organization, cultivating relationships, dealing with obstacles, avoiding traps, continuing to grow and – eventually – identifying when it’s time to move on.

Reputation and Opportunities

When you start to pursue a prospective job, investigate it thoroughly. Try to learn why the opening exists and what you’d be expected to do. During your interview, consider salary, benefits and how the organization’s culture and the job fit your career goals.
