Essentially, a corporate job typically involves a 9-5 schedule, a set of tasks to complete, and a manager to report to. Some employees thrive in the structure of a corporate job, but several others find it unfulfilling.
The first lessons everyone already a part of the corporate sector is likely to tell you are that keep your personal life and professional life separate; develop your personality; communication is the key; and don’t prioritise your job at the cost of your family.
Remember, if your colleague is outperforming you, don’t consider them a threat. They can be your mentor, instead. Your career is not a sport. If someone has to lose for you to rank first, maybe it’s time to retrace your paths and think from square one.
Degrees matter, but they are not the deal breakers. Your colleagues also have them. In order to perform better in your corporate job, you must have the right skills and contacts. Even if you are average at, say finance, if you talk to the right people, they are likely to help you.
It is important that you create boundaries. Most corporate employees fail to say ‘no’. They are likely to take on infinite load until they burn out. There is one more thing. You are required to do stuff outside of your job description. Don’t have a fixed mindset.
Staying at a job for a long period is one of the biggest corporate epidemic no one is going to tell you. Boredom is a big thing in corporate life. In order to keep your career progressing, change jobs. You might even get an instant pay rise.
So many employees ignore LinkedIn. But if you share your thoughts about the industry regularly, it helps you attract more opportunities. These opportunities can become a Plan B for you in case things go sour in your current company.
