Day Four

Hello Everyone,

Handshakes form the most important element of any networking activity.



Here are some Handshake Rules:

1) Be firm, but not too firm.

2) Lean forward just a bit to show some interest in knowing a person.

3) A confident handshake goes well with a pleasant smile on the face.

4) Eye contact while handshaking is a cherry on the pie.


Thats all for today.

Ciao..

Day Three

Hey Baby Corps,

Absorbing a lot of information at once will saturate your brain to a limit that can blast bricks out of your head, so keeping that in mind, learn one thing at a time. Guidelines to do so:
1) When training, always come in 10 minutes early, grab some pre-info on the topic to be discussed in the lecture.

2) Carry the necessary stationery and get seated ahead enough for a good view and sound.

3) If you have any questions and shy to discuss it with the Leader while the class is in process, do so after the class and make sure you clear your doubts reason being, your thought of embarrassment would only fill your mind with more misconceptions about the Company.

4) When on field, be very courteous to all your colleagues and seniors and make sure all the people working on respective levels and departments know you by your first name and vice versa.

Thats it for now.

Happy Corporating.

Day Two

Day Two comes with a twist.

This post teaches you The art of keeping secrets in the Corporate World.

Corporate Secrets comprise of the following information:

1) Consumer Pricing

2) Marketing Strategies

3) Cost Structure

4) Distribution Channel

5) Vendor Details

6) Updated Business Plans.

The above mentioned Details form the Bible of every enterprise on the Globe.

The Boss would not possibly and actually ask you to take a solemn oath before you join the Organization, but surely expects Work Ethics to be followed when you are working.

Thats it for today.

Have a great Weekend.

Day One

Dear Aspirants,

Wanna get into the Corporate World?

Thats great, but lemme get some Day one facts cleared before u dive into the ocean.

As, u know u are a newbie, so u gotta be familiar with such terms:

Expectations

When you join a company, you are full of enthusiasm and have a burning desire to prove yourself. However, be prepared to do low-key tasks in the first few months (in some cases, years) of your stint with the organisation. Ronny, 28, who works for a BPO as a Team Leader, had a tough time accepting the fact that she just did repetitive data processing in the first few months of her job. "I almost contemplated quitting, but stuck on and grew in the organisation," he says.

Some of the highest levels of decision-makers in the corporate world are those who started in the front ranks. In fact, one of the leading corporations in India almost has a policy of exposing the management trainees it hires to the ruthlessness of the market before they rise up the corporate ladder. The perspective you develop at the bottom of the ladder is very valuable as you climb up. This is because when you do become an armchair manager; you know how things are actually implemented in the real world.

Your unwritten job description: Learn

Be a sponge. Learn. Learn. Learn. And then, learn some more. Expand your perspective quickly beyond what your role is. How does the business work? Where is the money coming from? What does the customer want? What are the different types of customers? What are their biggest concerns? What is the biggest concern of your boss? What kind of activities does your boss do? What skills do your successful seniors show consistently? How would you look at your role if you were the boss or the boss's boss? How does the business look from your boss' perspective? How does it look from the CEO's perspective?

I have seen, time and again, that those who show tremendous growth in short spans of time are performers who have a hunger to learn, and an ability to look at the bigger picture. Develop these two traits consciously. Write down what you learn every day. Understand the business from different perspectives. If you are not learning something new, you are just repeating what you did yesterday. Work experience is so called because it is just that. Experience. If your experience is the same, in the end you might end up asking yourself, "Do I have four years of experience or do I have one year of experience repeated four times?"
