Office Politics
I wonder if when you went on that interview you so prepared yourself for if you had any idea that if you got hired for the position there would be more to go with the job then just doing the job itself well.
In today’s corporate world office politics play a very large roll in your advancement in any particular company. You can be very proficient in your job and get passed over for promotion time after time as you watch your fellow colleagues get the position even when they have absolutely no idea what they are doing.
In most situations it is not what you know it is who you know. So, if you are not goofing off and cracking up bad jokes with the individuals that do the hiring in your department you are almost certain that you are doomed for fast advancement or any at all in severe situations.
Knowledge in itself is just not enough in today’s work place you have to go that extra mile to succeed. If you want to be successful in the corporate world jump right in feet first never take no for an answer if it has to do with your job advancement. Remember the only person that is truly going to look out for your best interest is you. You should never lie idly by and allow others to dictate to you your sense of worth. If you do you will only have yourself to blame down the road.
In closing, when going in for that job interview don’t be nervous just keep your head up and your shoulders back and remember you are there for you first and if you want to succeed carry that attitude on your shoulders this will show in your confidence level and you will find you will be successful and get precisely out of that job you wanted and perhaps more.
Good luck.
