Your first year of work: The survival guide

Shelagh Foster has seen interviewees and new employees battling to get ahead once they’ve finished matric, college or university. The shock of the work environment can be daunting and sometimes it’s difficult to tell why one’s efforts aren’t always met with success. This prompted her to write a survival guide to explain the unwritten codes that exist in the workplace, the codes you need to understand to be successful. Shelagh will show you the ropes - how to write a winning CV, how to impress in an interview, how your body language impacts on your colleagues’ impressions of your performance, how to win respect in written communication, how to interpret dress codes and much more.
