Your first day will likely involve an induction process including setting up your computer and desk space. You’ll need to provide your paperwork including banking, tax and superannuation details, as well as copies of any relevant certifications, so remember to bring the information with you.
You will also be collaborating with the members of your new team, many of whom you may not have met previously. Prepare your introduction and be able to talk about yourself succinctly, including your previous work history as well as your personal interests.
Most importantly, enjoy the new job experience! Remember that you earned the job by being the best candidate. This is your chance to meet a new bunch of like-minded professionals and work on interesting projects aligned with your career path.
