How to become a dreamy team player: 5 tips from Nexti team

1️⃣ Improve your communication skills

🧖 Communication suggests active listening, clear expression of ideas, and connecting with your team. Share tasks, cooperate, and help other team players.

2️⃣ Solve problems

🙋 Critical thinking, analysis, and problem-solving are the factors of successfully overcoming challenges your team will face from time to time. Suggesting creative solutions, improving ideas, and actively participating in communication will make you a valuable team member.

3️⃣ Know your role

🧖 You need to know your responsibilities and the limits. Some issues are out of your competence. Try to be realistic about your capabilities, as other team members will depend on your delivery of the results.

4️⃣ Be initiative

🙋 Initiative means being far-sighted and preventing issues and problems before they occur. It also means actively trying to solve them as soon as they appear. It is advisable to take action before someone asks you to do something.

5️⃣ Never break deadlines

🧖 When working in a team, you become a part of the mechanism in which the performance depends on each small part. Timely delivery of the tasks means that the mechanism operates well. If you break the deadlines, it can pull along a chain of faults of other team members.

Three types of employees who can be fired without regret

👩 Sufferers

👀 Such an employee is unhappy in any situation and constantly complains about everything. He does not like the tasks, the salary, or the chair’s colour.

🙅 Often, such employees infect their colleagues with dissatisfaction, sowing a lousy mood and discouragement. And if there are several such sufferers in the team, the company has few chances to achieve the set goal and breakthrough.

👨 Rebel

👀 These workers, on the contrary, are very active, sometimes even too much. They always notice all the flaws in the office and the processes, and they know their rights well, but sometimes they forget about their responsibilities.

🙅 If the energy of the rebel is used to good use, you will be satisfied with the result. But if you let the ambitions of a rebel in the wrong place be satisfied, expect trouble.

👩 Talkative

👀 They are often caught in intrigue, gossip, and sometimes in more serious offences, such as disclosing confidential information. You are preparing an innovative product for release, switching to a different form of ownership, and planning to make a loud statement, but everyone already knows.

Common causes of high employee turnover:

🔗 Poor selection

👉 Sometimes, recruiters’ desire to fill a job as quickly as possible can lead to hiring the wrong employee. Or, during the selection process, the applicant did not receive complete information about the job, and subsequently, his expectations were not met.

🔗 Dissatisfaction with the leadership and its attitude

👉 It can be a personal dislike for the leader and disagreement with management methods. Staff turnover can be overestimated in environments with poor communication and poorly developed reward and reward systems. Workers feel underappreciated, ignored, helpless, and insignificant in such an environment.

🔗 Lack of career and professional development and training

👉 On the one hand, employers value employee ambition. But on the other hand, it can become a reason for leaving if employees do not see career opportunities within the organisation. Also, dissatisfaction with the profession and the desire to change their speciality induce employees to look for a new application on the side if they do not find it in this company.

🔗 Unfavourable working conditions

👉 We spend a significant part of our lives at work, so it is natural to want to spend this time in a comfortable environment. Cramped, poorly lit rooms, poor climatic conditions, and low-quality equipment or lack of it are just some of the examples that cause dissatisfaction with the workspace.

🔗 Poor adaptation or lack thereof

👉 Causes premature dismissal on probation. Even when new employees remain and work in the company for a long time, their decision to dismiss can already be made in the first weeks of employment.

🔗 The prospect of getting a higher salary elsewhere

👉 This practice is observed at all levels of staff. Money is often not the root cause, though. Salary is not a direct determinant of job satisfaction. Many employees are not satisfied with the psychological climate at work, they are disloyal and unmotivated, and money, in this case, is a convenient excuse to leave the company.

What is a cover letter, and what is its purpose?

A cover letter is a document that is an additional part of a resume. It can be called motivational because its purpose is to prove that you are the right person for the vacant position and what will benefit the company from you.

Why write a cover letter for a resume?

👨 You will show the company that you are interested in working for them, not just send resumes to vacant positions.

👩 To prove that you can add value to the company. You can apply what experience gained at the places of previous work in a new place.

👨 To make your resume stand out from others. It should be detailed and of high quality. It will increase the chance of a response.

👩 To meet the requirements of the employer. Some recruiters use various ways to check the applicant's attention, for example, asking them to write a certain code word or phrase in a cover letter.

4 rules for successful career growth

🙅 Don’t be irresponsible

🖇️ Worse than lack of initiative and any ambition can only be irresponsibility. Think if you spend 60% of your work time on social networks and the rest of the time in smoking rooms and over a cup of tea, and your immediate responsibilities are performed if your boss is over your head or the deadline was yesterday. Such an approach will not only not bring career growth but can also serve as a reason for dismissal.

👀 Always have a dream

🖇️ The first and most important thing that prevents you from achieving success, in principle, in any endeavour, is the absence of a dream. If you have no idea why you go to work or do something, think - maybe this is not yours?

🔗 Do not be afraid to try new things - you can change your profession anytime. And even if something does not work out for you or you realise that this is not your business, the worst thing is the time spent. And taking into account modern trends, spending your whole life in one company is the installation of the last century.

🙅 Don’t be quarrelsomeness

🖇️ It is worth working with your inner world and balancing negative traits with positive ones for a career take-off.

👀 Don’t be modest

🔗 This trait, of course, is not the most terrible of all, and in general, there is nothing wrong with it, but she can become the factor because of which a meteoric career take-off will never happen.

🖇️ Modesty will not allow you to declare yourself, to tell how much you do for the company, how much you have achieved in your work activity, and much more, and if you don’t say this, the management will never know about it. And therefore, there will be no promotion.

4 mistakes when looking for a job

🙅 Mistake #1. Not creating or updating a resume 📌

👉 A resume is your primary way of drawing a recruiter’s attention to your candidacy. Of course, you can apply for a vacancy by simply writing your name and contacts. But this will be much less effective – you will immediately lose against the background of competitors who were not too lazy and still created such a document. Likely, the recruiter will not call you back at all.

🙋 But even with a resume, do not forget to supplement and update it. Usually, people change jobs once every 1-2 years. If you created your resume in 2019, the information in it is already outdated: you have new skills and abilities, and maybe you even changed your field of activity.

🙅 Mistake #2. Not checking your social media 📌

👉 Nowadays, many recruiters look through not only the resume of job applicants but also their pages on social networks. Consider this, and review your posts, photos, and comments before starting your job search.

🙅 Mistake #3. Scolding old colleagues and bosses 📌

👉 Yes, your old boss might have done bad things to you. If everything were fine, you would hardly be looking for a new job now. At the same time, you should not focus on the negative in the story about why you left your previous job.

🙅 Mistake #4. Be rude in interviews 📌

🙋 Of course, no one will hire impolite and scandalous job seekers.
Sometimes recruiters can repeatedly ask the same thing several times and demand clarifications from you as if trying to catch you in a lie.

👉 And for some positions, so-called “stress interviews” are carried out at all – during such a meeting, they will try to p**s off the applicant to check his stress resistance.

🙋 You need to stay calm and, in no case, be rude to the interlocutor. If the HR question seems inappropriate or too personal, you can defend your boundaries respectfully without speaking harshly.

3 ways you can establish yourself as a valuable employee

1️⃣ Take the initiative 📌

👉 Don't be afraid to take on new challenges. Take the initiative. If the question arises at work, to whom to entrust a new task, analyse whether its implementation will allow you to show and demonstrate your qualities and skills and whether you will gain unique experience. Do not forget that you need to work not only for the public but also for your professional growth.

2️⃣ Talk about your successes 📌

👉 When you receive gratitude from partners or clients, the positive indicators of your project grow, or in case of other successes, feel free to tell the management about it. In writing, by email, or orally. Remember that your boss is always pleased with his company's success because he considers any victories of the organisation and employees as personal success and personal achievements.

3️⃣ Demonstrate your competence 📌

👉 To demonstrate your professionalism, you must be well informed. Communicate more with colleagues about current projects, monitor the market situation in your field, and collect information on the Internet. This information should serve as a source of new ideas for you.

Questions from a recruiter that are almost always answered incorrectly

Even a good specialist will only be able to get a position if he presents himself correctly at the interview. To avoid this, we have prepared recommendations for three questions that applicants often need to answer correctly.

1️⃣ You are currently employed. Why do you want to change your job? 👀

If you have disagreements with management or other conflicts, do not expose them.

You need to speak well or neutrally in an interview about your superiors. It is also better not to express your financial motivation and not complain about insufficient salary, a large family and a loans.

Your motives should be logical and understandable. For example, if you are a sales manager, you can say that the company lacks resources and there are not enough goods, making it impossible for you to grow professionally.

2️⃣ Tell us about yourself 👀

The main mistake will be to tell everything about yourself, starting from school and university and ending with the last place of work. Your full autobiography may give the impression that you must distinguish the main from the secondary.

You should provide important information about the position you are applying for. You can also ask the interviewer what he would like to know first.

3️⃣ Why did the project you were involved in fail? 👀

Attributing failures to the illiteracy of management, the state of the market, the country's economic situation, and colleagues' mistakes while remaining indifferent, you risk looking like a person who prefers to evade responsibility and is unable to learn from mistakes. A good specialist should be able to admit his mistakes and draw conclusions from them.

Tips on how to deal with rejection the right way 💆👇

1️⃣ Don't take rejection personally 💼

The fact that the employer did not choose you may have nothing to do with you and be the result of a host of other factors. The company could pause the search and find an internal candidate already familiar with the business or another applicant with slightly more relevant experience.

2️⃣ Listen to feedback 💼

If you get rejected, you can forget about it and move on to the next job posting. But asking for feedback can benefit your career.

3️⃣ Do not accumulate negative experiences 💼

If you make mistakes or feel unprepared for an interview, learn from the situation, but don't focus on the experience.

Edit your resume to best suit the new position, and prepare carefully for your following interview.

4️⃣ Remember that rejection is part of the process 💼

You will only be able to get some jobs you apply for. Be aware of this fact and learn to accept rejection as part of the process - this is how you strengthen your mental armour.

5️⃣ Respond to rejection letters 💼

Express your gratitude for the fact that the recruiter paid attention to you. You can build a positive relationship with the company, while other candidates are more likely to delete the rejection letter.

You must do it for three reasons:

👉 A candidate who intercepts your offer may change their mind and not start working.

👉 The new employee may not pass the probationary period.

👉 The employer has a vacancy for another position that you might be suitable for

In any of these situations, it is much easier to select from recent candidates than it is to restart the hiring process.

Soft skills worth developing in 2023 💯🤝

🙋 Teamwork

The ability to work in a team will be an essential aspect when looking for a job. More and more candidates want team interaction, with mutual assistance, support, exchange of experience, and a healthy atmosphere.

👇 Ability to make decisions

In a dynamically changing environment, team managers need to stay focused and make decisions quickly, assessing risks. This trend will be relevant in 2023 more than ever. Team managers must focus on quick decisions and a balanced approach to assessing possible risks. This skill is worth continuing to develop this and next year.

🙋 Leadership

A complicated skill. And yet, teams need visionaries who can make decisions and support and lead them. The leader directs and infects the team with an idea. Leaders in 2023 will face even more of the need to learn to find a balance between a strategic assessment of the situation and risks, the ability to negotiate with the team and resolve conflicts.

👇 Self-management

Hiring a colleague to the team, we constantly evaluate the degree of his independence and ability to plan his activities. With a long-term remote work format, many emotionally distance themselves from what is happening and lose the focus necessary for work.

🙋 Adaptability

In the current work format, employees often meet online, communicate with colleagues in correspondence, and adapt to the multinational characteristics of colleagues. The pace of change will only increase. Acceptance of the situation and the ability to adapt to it will be more useful than ever.

👇 Communication

The ability to communicate has always been an essential soft skill, especially for positions requiring communication with clients and teams. In the coming year, the importance of effective communication will increase.

Four signs that you are looking at a job-scam 📌👇

You can find «shady» offers among the tempting and hot vacancies. By ignorance, you can get acquainted with not the most honest employers.

The big company hides their name.
In the job description, there are phrases «large international company» or «company cooperates with large international companies», but which company is not understood? This is the first sign that a company name can scare off applicants.

🗯 Incomprehensible kind of company activity 🙅

👉 When activity sounds vague, without specifying a specific sphere of action, for example, a «young dynamically developing company» - this formulation is alarming. If at the same time, the job description is short to improper - you need to be on guard.

🗯 The company hides its contacts 🙅

👉 That is, it does not specify any data to be able to find at least some information about her on the Internet or with friends - the site, the address. If an employer hides this information even after you have requested it, either the company does not have a website/office or has a secret.

🗯 You need to pay for a job or an interview 🙅

👉 In theory, only recruitment agencies can take money for employment.

We hope you don't deal with troubled employers, find a favourite job and enjoy life.
