Make a Lasting Impression: How to Excel in Your First 30 Days at a New Job

Congratulations on your new job! The first month on a new assignment is exciting because you meet your new co-workers, learn your responsibilities, and get your first paycheck! With all that excitement can also come some nerves. Making a good first impression does not have to be stressful. 

Your Roadmap to Success: 15 Essential Strategies to Thrive at Your New Job 

Your new manager probably has a month-long onboarding program planned for you. This usually includes training sessions and important information about company policies and procedures.  

During this time, it’s your chance to show that you were the best choice by demonstrating your knowledge, skills, and how well you fit in with the team. Here are tips on how to excel in your first 30 days at a new job. 

1. Do Your Research

First you might not have much work to do, so use that time to learn more about the company. Check out their website and watch old company presentations. Knowing the company’s mission and vision will help you stand out when you take on a more significant workload. 

Moreover, learn the unwritten rules of daily operations. Notice the dress code, how people communicate (formal emails or casual chats), and how they share information across teams and departments. Pay attention to how they run meetings, make decisions, and how they generally interact with each other. Doing this will help you adjust to your new environment seamlessly.

2. Learn the Tools and Systems

Every company uses different tools, software, and systems. Make it a priority to learn how to access and navigate the email system, communication platforms, project management tools, and industry-specific software. Knowing how to use these tools well will help you do your tasks efficiently and reduce the time you need to ask for help from colleagues. 

3. Set Personal Goals

Set up a meeting with your supervisor to review the training process. Prioritize the goals for your first 30, 60, and 90 days to ensure that you and your manager understand the expectations for your role. 

It’s also important to know the key metrics to track your success. If the company doesn’t have software for these metrics, you can keep a personal log of your productivity. 

4.  Ask Questions

Not knowing something is not shameful, especially in a new job. It’s better to ask questions than to assume or go in the wrong direction. If you’re unsure about a task, a process, or a company policy, don’t hesitate to ask your manager or colleagues for clarification. 

Asking questions shows that you want to learn and get things right, and it helps avoid mistakes. Frame your questions to show you’ve tried to understand but need specific help. A good manager will appreciate this and be happy to guide you.

5. Find a Mentor

A mentor can give you guidance, support, and insights into the company, your role, and the industry. Many companies have formal mentorship programs, so ask about these during your onboarding process. You can also take the initiative to find a mentor by approaching a senior colleague you admire and asking if you can learn from their experience. 

Look for someone whose career path matches your goals or whose work style you respect. Arrange an informal coffee chat or lunch to learn more about their role and the company culture. This first conversation can lead to a long-lasting mentorship that will benefit you throughout your time at the company.

6. Network Within and Outside Your Department

Building relationships within your company is crucial to success. While it’s essential to focus on your immediate team, don’t limit yourself within your little bubble—network with colleagues from different departments to better understand the company’s operations. 

Make sure to attend all meetings, especially in the beginning. Meetings are a great way to catch up on project updates, understand team priorities, and participate in decision-making processes. These interactions can provide valuable information and support as you navigate your new role. 

Look for chances to collaborate on projects with colleagues from different departments or start conversations with colleagues in the break room or hallway. Building a strong network throughout the company increases your visibility and can lead to future opportunities.

7. Be Proactive and Take Initiative

Ask for tasks you can work on to show you’re proactive and eager to be a valuable team member. Look for ways to contribute and show your initiative. Even while you’re still learning, you can volunteer for projects that match your skills and interests. 

Let your manager know you’re willing to learn new skills and take on more responsibilities when appropriate. However, be careful not to take on too much to avoid burnout. Talk to your manager about opportunities that fit your current workload and skills.

8. Deliver Quality Work and Meet Deadlines

Even in the beginning, show your commitment to excellence. Aim to produce high-quality work that meets or exceeds expectations. Pay close attention to detail and make sure your work is accurate and error-free. If you face any unexpected challenges that might delay your progress, inform your manager so you can coordinate to adjust. Consistently meeting deadlines shows you’re reliable, which makes a strong, positive impression on your manager and colleagues.

9. Manage Your Time Effectively

The first 30 days can overload information, meetings, and tasks. To keep from feeling overwhelmed, devise ways to manage your time well. Learn to decide which tasks are most urgent and vital. If you’re feeling overwhelmed, ask your manager for help prioritizing tasks. 

Use to-do lists, apps, or a planner to keep organized and see how you’re doing. Plan specific times for different tasks so you don’t try to do too much at once and can stay focused. Face challenging tasks right away, and don’t wait until the last minute to do things. Taking short breaks during the day can also keep you feeling fresh and stop you from getting too tired.

10. Maintain a Positive and Professional Attitude

Having a positive attitude can make a big difference at work. It makes the environment more enjoyable for you and your colleagues. When you face challenges, be enthusiastic and ready to learn. Even if things don’t go well, stay professional. Pay attention to your body language and how you communicate. Show confidence and professionalism, especially when you’re not sure about something. A smile and a positive attitude can make a good impression. When you can, offer help to your colleagues and celebrate your team’s successes.

11. Ask for Feedback

Don’t wait for a formal performance review to seek feedback. Schedule a brief meeting with your manager to discuss your progress and show your desire to learn and improve. Ask for specific feedback on your work, communication style, and areas where you can develop further. Be open to constructive criticism and show that you’re willing to learn.

12. Maintain a Healthy Work-Life Balance

While making a good impression and proving yourself are essential, don’t forget to take care of yourself. Set boundaries between work and personal life. Get enough sleep so you’re well-rested and energized for work. Take breaks during the day to move around and avoid sitting too long. Eat healthily and stay hydrated to support your physical and mental well-being. 

Make time for activities you enjoy outside work, like spending time with loved ones, hobbies, or exercising. A healthy work-life balance will help you avoid burnout and keep your energy and enthusiasm high. A happy and healthy you is a more productive and successful you!
