Career Tips We Learned On The Job | Fusion - WeRIndia

School & college are not the only place where we start learning about the things related to our career.

We started learning from our childhood and keep learning the new things whole life.

There are few things you can only learn during your work at your workplace which are important in your life.

Our teacher, parents worked hard on us but now it’s the time to work harder on yourself.

Here are career tips we learned on the job:

1. Just Tell the Truth

It’s easier that way. For you, for the company that hires you, for the boss who controls your life, and for the weird dude covered in flair who happens to be standing in your way when you’re trying to talk to Jennifer Aniston. Life is short. Speak your mind.

If your boss knows how to run a company and cares about doing it well, he or she will tune in and listen. If not, then it doesn’t matter. You did your part.

2. People skills matter

In your job your skills & behaviour matter a lot. Try to learn the skills which will be helpful for you and the company. It will help you to get promotion early. Different profiles required different skills.

If you know how to deal with people, kick back and relax. Go ahead and take out that big mortgage. Your job is safe forever.

3. Express yourself

Confident communication skills help us to make and maintain good connections. Improve your communication skills to express yourself for real – Your body gesture, eye contact, don’t afraid to take a pause before answering questions, modulate your voice, your attire, be a engaged listener.

4. Let go of the illusion of control

Sometimes showing up on time and doing what you’re told can help you reach your goals. Sometimes it can’t. Or it won’t. Or it just doesn’t, for reasons that have nothing to do with you or the quality of your work. Therefore, it’s never a good idea to place your career climb at the centre of your life. Build the foundations of your happiness on something a little more stable.

If you love your job, hold onto that feeling – It’s rare. And if you don’t love your job, don’t be afraid to let go. Turn to the resume creation and job search resources and take your life in a new direction.
