When you work with a temp agency in DeKalb, you'll have a lot of first days at different jobs. It's an ideal time to start honing your approach-and you'll be able to rely on this skill throughout your career.

How To Make A Good Impression On Day One 

At Express Employment Professionals DeKalb, our temp agency helps workers get acclimated, even before you start a new job. Here are our tips for making a good impression from the start: 

• Take deep breaths.  It's not uncommon to feel panicky and nervous on your first day. Stress makes it easier to make mistakes. Try this: take a few long, deep breaths. Focus on three sounds you can hear, and three things you can see. These small tricks can help you to focus on the moment, and to ease some of the nerves you feel. It can also help you feel more comfortable on the job. 
• Give yourself time.  When you're starting a new job, it will take time to get the lay of the land properly. Give yourself time for that to happen. Get to work a few minutes early, so you aren't rushing in at the last minute, frazzled and worried. Give yourself a few minutes throughout the day to collect yourself. And give yourself time to get better-it's okay to make mistakes, as long as you learn from them. 
• Exhibit positivity.  A positive attitude and a good sense of humor can get you far, especially on the first day. Say hello to people and introduce yourself. Don't be too hard on yourself if you make a mistake or don't get something on the first try. Be courteous and pleasant to your co-workers. When someone's talking to you, make sure your body language projects attentiveness and interest.
