Know the stake holders.  understand the organization. understand your roles,  understand the importance of your contribution to the organization. understand where do you stand in the organization chart, who is your immediate superior to whom you will be reporting, who are your peers and subordinates, speak to them, know the expectations, know what you are supposed to do and what not.  do not make the mistake of trying to become a superman at the workplace at first entry. start slowly, understand the systems and procedures well, contribute steadily and constantly.  understand the culture, adapt yourself to the culture, be open to discuss issues with your peers and superiors.

Starting at a new job can be nerve-wracking, because you have new tasks to learn, new bosses to impress and new colleagues to meet. It's important to know how to behave at a new job to make a good first impression. Keep in mind how to behave at a new job so you can succeed in your career.

Take the time to introduce yourself in the elevator or to colleagues at the desks across from yours. Engage your new coworkers in conversation when they welcome you to the team, but stay neutral in your opinions about them. You don't have to automatically be seen as a "cool" person by your new coworkers, so act natural and be yourself. It's a new job and there's a lot to learn, but don't let it intimidate you. Remember you earned that job due to your experience and let your workplace attitude display that confidence and experience. You're a new employee, but you're part of a team. The sooner you start acting like it the sooner you'll be accepted as a team player. Ask your manager or superior what you can be doing to help the team.

The first impression at a new job is important. So, it's important to be refreshed, alert, handsome, tidy, well-rested and ready to go.

Be yourself

Stay confident

Get to know your colleagues - Introduce yourself and start developing a relationship with coworkers and let them know you're part of the team .

 Work as a team player - start with your own team. Determine who does what, and make sure you're clear on exactly what they do.

Learn your new job - establish goals and define your objectives.

Learn your work area and as appropriate set it up to help you find peace and stability in your new environment.
