Feeling nervous!?


Hi, I am currently pursuing Undergrad degree in Math (planning to do second degree in Economics).


I got this part-time job 4 hr/day as computer operator in brokerage firm...(have to work for investment advisor and associate advisor).

Tommorow is my first day of training....i have never worked before in professional setting...so i am feeling little nervous...

Any tips how to overcome this feeling???
thanks

Just go in there ready and willing to learn everything you can from them and gain valuable experience. Go in there dressed nicely and that will boost your confidence. Try to not be nervous. Everyone is nervous on their first day (I think, anyway) and soon your first day will be over & you'll be ready to run with the big guys.

Just remember everyone feels nervous starting a professional job .. just remember to act professionally. Don't get involved in petty office gossip or act like you are at a frat party. Be pleasant to everyone and give your full attention to the job at hand and you won't have time to be nervous ...you will be working !!

It's your first day on the new job. Every one of us who works or who has worked has gone through the same feeling, anticipation mixed with raw panic.

What if I mess up? A former boss said that the trick was to put your foot in your mouth with confidence and to pull it out with grace.

You will no doubt make a mistake or wo. You will, I am sure, get almost everything right from the start.

Very important; Dont play smartass. You are a beginner so you should watch and learn from your boss. Respect him/her, dont argue with him/her at least not for the first 3 months.

Trust me, it will be easier for you to be accepted in the team.

Dress well, focus on what you are paid to do.

Have fun
