They introduce themselves to everyone

On day one, introduce yourself to everyone on your team, along with any other coworkers.

Business Insider previously reported that it serves them well to get you started on the right foot, because your work will directly affect theirs. The sooner you break the ice, the faster you will see results. 



They only speak positively

Nobody likes a negative Nancy. How you act within your first 30 days is going to form your team's first impression of who you are, and impressions can be difficult to change.

"We all know that first impressions matter. Smile when you meet new people and shake their hands. Introduce yourself to everyone and make it clear how happy and eager you are to be there. Your coworkers will remember," Mark Strong, a life, career, and executive coach previously told Business Insider.



They get crystal clear on their daily, weekly, and monthly expectations

It is absolutely vital to "ask for some time with your manager to have a big-picture conversation about priorities," career advice expert Natalia Autenreith wrote on Top Resume.

She recommends asking the following questions to get clear on what's expected of you:

• What is the team working on right now?

• What are the biggest obstacles?

• What can you do to be helpful today?
