💨 Abstract

On your first day at a new job, besides managing practical details, it's crucial to make a good impression. Poor first impressions can hinder onboarding, reduce trust, and cause feelings of loneliness. Focus on building relationships, not just technical skills. Combat shyness by initiating conversations with colleagues early on. Dress appropriately for the company culture to avoid standing out negatively. Do this by checking with your hiring manager or examining photos on LinkedIn.
