Freshers need to adapt to a different way of life when they land their first job. Here are some tips 
There is nothing to beat the feeling of the thrill of an appointment letter and the high of being able to get your own salary. You have worked hard, built your skills and diligently hunted for a job and finally got it! However, there are things you need to keep in mind when you start your first job:
Focusing more on money than on building the career
“Getting a good salary is no doubt important, but having joined a company, being focused more on money than the job and the responsibilities it entails can prove costly in the long run,” says Nikhil Chandoor, recruitment head (IT division), REG Services, Bangalore. “It is the job and what you do at work that ensures a successful career. The skills you sharpen, the responsibilities you take on and the problem solving abilities you display that helps build a career with a dream income, not the other way round.”
Confusing your boss with the headmistress
“Your boss is not the all powerful guy you make him out to be. He/she has to report to his/her boss and has to deliver within the limitations set by them. Candidates with `under two years experience’ often go to the boss with problems. As a co-worker you are expected to come up with solutions,” says Chandoor. “In fact, ensuring the boss does not get flak for your non-delivery is one good way of chalking out a good career path.”
Taking a job where you do not learn
Sticking to a job of your choice where you enjoy what you do and are constantly learning are some essential aspects that industry professionals strongly recommend.
“Freshers are under tremendous pressure from parents, relatives and peer groups to get ‘that dream job’. In their rush to satisfy this expectation, the kind of work they want to do gets shortchanged,” says   Sudha Ramalingam, HR head IT, TechnoLeague, India, one of the companies that focuses on global placements for several technology giants. “A smarter move is to take up a job, which helps build your skills and provides you with a platform to learn.”
Sticking to your group within the office
“Candidates in the `under two years experience’ category often continue to hang out with a set of people, within or outside office. Making connections within office and relying on them is a good strategy for career development,” says Ramalingam. “This coupled with building connections with other professionals (off and online) can help expand your vision and provide a broader perspective of the company and industry in general. A great opportunity to help give the new fillip to any career.”
