L'erreur qui peut détruire ta carrière le PREMIER jour !

Hello, friends. Daily walk along the seaside in Mauritius. It's a bit overcast today. It might rain, but the temperature is still pleasant. So a question that came in on the phone over there from the canal. It's from someone who says to me, I found a job. I've just started. What do you advise me? What do you advise me for the first few days? So that's a very good question. First of all, you. You can see that there are people who are finding work, okay? So I'm saying this for all those who write to me, saying it's difficult. Yes, it's difficult at the moment, it's the crisis, I think. I won't take it from you. But the good thing is that there are still ways to find work. And everyday people contact me. They've found work.

Okay?

So that's the first point. Second point. What advice can we give to someone who has just found a job? What can we tell them? How do they get through the first few days? So let me tell you, the first few days in a company are extremely tricky because you can make mistakes. You can make mistakes and you can't easily bounce back from those mistakes. And it's very difficult to bounce back from the mistakes of the first day. So, for example, let's say you arrive, someone comes up to you, and, well, you're, you're there, you're shy, you don't know anyone. So you're going to talk, right? They're going to get you to talk. They're going to pretend to be interested in you. You're always happy, aren't you, when you're new somewhere in a group, and then someone comes along and starts to include you a little bit. You're always happy to share. And then you might realize a month or two later that this person is very poorly regarded in the company, someone very toxic, someone who listens to things, who repeats them, who reports them, who distorts them, who creates problems between people, all that. And then everyone is suspicious of this person. And then you, well, you let yourself go, you left like that. You told a lot of things about your previous employer. Maybe you even spilled some stuff about your private life, stuff like that, you know, so, uh, there you made a blunder, A blunder. And it's going to be very, very hard to recover from that, okay? But you made it because you didn't know the dynamics. That's why I'm telling you, starting in a new company is always super risky. Another type of mistake. You know that in companies there are clans with labels Right. That's how it is. You can't do anything about it. There are groups with labels. I was trying to steady the phone there because it's very heavy there. I realized that at arm's length, it's extremely heavy. I don't have my. I don't have a tripod. I think it's better this way. So let me tell you something. Uh, in companies, there are groups. Each group has a reputation. Each group is seen in a certain way. It's out of your control. That's how it was before you came. So let's say there's a group. They're seen as losers. I'm not judging there. I'm not judging their, how should I say? Their human value. No, I'm just telling you they're seen as losers in the company. That's how it is. They have this label. You know, labels are very easy. You arrive, he invites you to lunch. You're going to eat with these people. They're nice. Well, you're going to eat with them.

Great.

In the afternoon, you meet them at the coffee machine. Well, you have a coffee with them.

Great.

The next day, well, he comes to pick you up at your office.

Great.

You're going to eat with them again. So you're going to do this from Monday to Friday. And then everyone around you who hates this group, well, he looks at you, he says, hey, you see, you saw the new guy there, huh? He's found the right people. He's found the right people, huh? He has affinities for these people, okay? So we're going to classify him with, huh? So you see, you're already, you're already classified, okay? Even though you haven't done anything special, you've just arrived and you already have a label on your back in the first week, you see, you start on Monday, all shy. Friday, you're still all shy, but you already have a label. And good luck getting rid of that.

Okay?

So just by the way, before we continue, the link pinned in, the comment in there is a comment pinned under the video is the link of the channel partner that illustrates they are based in France, so only contact them in France, and they provide support for people who have lost their job, who want to find another job, or for people who already have a job, but who are perhaps a little rusty, they want to find another one. They say to themselves, I'm not happy where I am. I want to leave, I want to change. But they don't know where to start. So they can help you, and their support is covered by France Travail under certain conditions. So they are in partnership with France Travail. Contact them on my behalf. You have the link under the video. So what did I want to say? Now, let's get back to our story. How do we do it? How do we avoid these problems? So what advice I can give you in the first few days, in the early days, is to be restrained. Restraint is really the key word in this video. Restraint means you don't make decisions, okay? Don't talk a lot. Listen carefully. Don't hang out with the same people. Don't make strong connections. First of all, you don't know anything about the company. You don't know its dynamics.

Wait, wait.

Stay calm. Quiet. Talk to lots of different people. If you've had lunch with people, blacklist them for the week or for three days, blacklist them straight away. You're going to talk to others the next day. And what I'm telling you is very healthy because it will force you. It will force you to go and see other people every day. It will force you to refuse to work in the company. Because I'll tell you something. It's not the job that will make you progress in the company. And you know that since you've been watching this channel for so long, it's not the job. You want to become the linchpin. You want to give it your all. You want to show them that they've hired the right person.

Right?

You want to show them that they're getting their money's worth. You're just going to. If you start out working like a madman, you're almost going to give them the impression that you're overpaid.

Right?

They may have paid too much for you and you feel uncomfortable. So you still want to give them your all, right?

Right?

You're going to do two jobs in one. Okay, don't do that. Don't do that. It's not worth it. Your value in a company, your prospects for advancement, your longevity, your bonuses, all that. The quality of the missions that you will or will not have will depend on your network. Your network. So start building your network. And building a network doesn't mean going to the first person you meet on the first day you arrive at a company and then staying with those people and then locking yourself in. No, not at all. So in the early days, your goal is to detect who is who. It's to know who the people are. It's to know what the dynamics are. What are the groups of people who like each other, who like who who hate who in this company, right? Because there's that too. You can't know, oh, I'm being attacked by mosquitoes right now. So you can't know that unless you actively look for it. That means you have to actively think about it because it exists. Don't tell me it doesn't exist in every company. There are clans in everything. Because when you're recruited, they talk to you about team spirit. But what they don't talk to you about is clan spirit. Because companies aren't run by teams, they're run by clans. And clans cut across teams, departments and groups. So unfortunately, that's how it is. So what you have to do is from the start, you shouldn't trust just anyone, whether it's an individual or a group. Don't trust a group of people. Don't trust one person. Don't hang out with the same people. Don't talk too much. Don't open your mouth. Don't criticize your past employer. Don't talk about your private life. Don't say where you come from. Don't say anything at all. Be open. Be professional. Be friendly.

Okay?

With everyone. Do your work reasonably. Reasonably. Take a look at the dynamics. If you see people leaving at 4:30 or 5pm, don't stay until 7pm just to show that you're better than everyone else. For example, if they give you a training session to do. But that often happens when you join a company. For example, they give you an online training session to do and they tell you, okay, so ask nicely how much time you have to do it nicely. If they tell you two weeks. Don't do it in two days just to show that you're a top dog. Don't do that. Don't do that. You'll kill yourself. You'll define yourself as a kingpin. Seriously, don't do that. They won't like you. They won't tell you, oh yeah, he's great. You see, he did it in two weeks when everyone else did it in 15 days. That means you're insulting them. They're going to look like idiots. You're going to make them look like idiots. They'll say, yeah, but who does he think he is? Who does he think he is? What does he want? He's looking for trouble here. What? Calm. We're working the company Human resources or I don't know who, or the director or the CEO or I don't know who gives us 15 days. He comes and does it in two. So what does he want? He wants.

Huh?

What is he looking for. He wants to look for trouble for us, right? He wants to make us show him as if we. As if we don't see anything. As if we're here. Hello. As if we're incompetent and as if we're here. Here we are. He comes or she comes. There you go. He shows us a little bit how we work.

Okay.

And now you're going to start talking about how nice the place is. I didn't understand. The place is nice. Ah, the place is nice today. Yeah, Indeed.

Okay. Where do you live?

Oh, over there.

Okay.

I live over there. Yes, over there.

Oh, the hotel.

Yeah. Mach. It's beautiful. It's very beautiful indeed. I won't show her to you. She just said hello. I won't show her to you because. Goodbye. Goodbye soon. See you soon. Actually, I won't show her to you because she looks like a minor. Honestly, she's 14. I prefer not to show minors without their parents consent. So I was saying, uh, if you work too much, you're just going to create. You're just going to create, how should I say? Resentment against yourself.

Okay?

So if they tell you. If they tell you, you do it in 15 days, you do it in 15 days. That's all. Don't worry about it. I'm not telling you to rush the deadline. Even if in some cases you can push it a little bit, there are people who do that. You can say hello, you can push the screw. So what does pushing the screw mean? It's like they give you 15 days and then after 15 days, or they don't wait 15 days after, I don't know, 10 days, you say, yes, the training is tough, right? It's something. It's something. And then they're happy. I'll tell you something, look, just look so that you know, look at something. Put the box. The box gives you a 15 day training. The one who gave it to you, you don't realize it. For example, it was N2 who decided he's the one who did it. He's the one who did it. Everyone told him, wow, it's a very dense training. It's great thing. You look, the training is empty. There's nothing, there's nothing that happened to me. There's nothing in it. It's, it's, it's. I don't know. He put 150 PowerPoints. We could have summarized it in a page and a half, like, okay, you're going to do it in four hours and you're going to say, wow, that's the eyes. And then you're going to communicate about it, right? Who are you insulting there, huh? You know what I mean? You're insulting the N2. You're saying that the N2 is an idiot. You know what I mean? You're saying that his training that everyone disagrees with, right? So you're the guy who comes in and says that the king has no clothes. And when are you going to do that? You're doing that in your first week. I mean, you've just arrived. You've already declared out loud that the king has no clothes, right? You know what I mean? You're looking for trouble, right? Okay, be very careful. Be very careful. There's a lot of dynamics in the boxes. There's a lot of dynamics. So there you go. Hold back. Moderation. We're very careful. We contact Qilu if we have any problems. The partner of this channel, look at the pinned comment. Many people have contacted him on my behalf and I have a lot of positive comments. If it doesn't work, you tell me too, and then I'll contact them. I'm in direct contact with them all the time. Okay, thank you, my friends. Okay, thank you for listening so far. I'm going to continue my walk. I'm going to stop because my arm is there. You have no idea. Take an iPhone at arm's length like I'm doing here, and then hold it for 12 minutes. You'll see what happens. Shoulder hurts. Okay, see you soon.
