Knock their socks off at the new job

For some, the beginning of the New Year means the beginning of new adventures, decisions and for the lucky few in these post-recession times, a new job. Perhaps you are a seasoned professional who has just made a career move you have been looking forward to and diligently preparing yourself for.

Or maybe you're a recent college/university graduate and have just landed yourself your first job, ever. Which ever bracket you fall in, you will still be starting something new in a completely new environment.  Everyone could use a little advice when faced with this exciting new challenge in life.

Listed below is a compilation of some advice gathered from various sources- if this information helps even just one person, I feel will have made a positive contribution towards the development of people in the work-force.  A better educated employer delivers a whole lot better at work. (hey, that's two of the five Ds - maybe I'll get some kudos from the President for this one!)
