Landing the job is a milestone, not the finish line. Here’s how to keep your career moving.
Own your development
Don’t wait for an annual review. Identify one or two skills that would make the biggest difference to your next step.
Ask for feedback early and often
Specific feedback helps you improve faster and shows you’re serious about growth.
Keep a record of your wins
- Note achievements, praise and results as they happen
- Use them in reviews, promotion conversations and your CV
- Look back at them when your confidence dips
Build relationships
Get to know people across your organisation. Mentors and sponsors can open doors you didn’t know existed.
Talk about progression
Tell your manager where you’d like to go and ask what it would take to get there.
