When and How to Ask for a Job Promotion
When and How to Ask for a Job Promotion via Pexels.com 1. The When While time does not always equal effort, it is necessary to consider how much time you have spent working in this company. If you have been at this company for less than six months, it may not yet a good idea to ask for a promotion. It is likely that you are still developing your knowledge of the processes, expectations, and responsibilities involved. If you are still fairly new, but feel you could be doing more, you could ask your supervisor or manager for some tasks with more responsibility involved. This will show initiative while also allowing yourself to build up your skills without having to take a huge leap before youâre ready. In some companies, you will go through a probation period where they will review your work after around 3-6 months. This is a great time to discuss with your supervisors any changes you may like to see to your responsibilities, tasks, and pay. Similarly, if you have just switched to a new role, it probably isnât the best time to ask for a promotion. Even though you may have short term success already, you need to show your colleagues that you will have long term success too. Give yourself some time to really dedicate yourself to this role. If you arenât feeling like you are doing enough, talk to the workers above you about some ideas you might have for improvement. 2. The Why The next step is to figure out why you are wanting a promotion. It could be a range of things from boredom to money to ambition, or a combination of all three. Youâre also going to need to begin gathering information from your boss about why youâd make a good candidate for a promotion, or perhaps why you are better off in the role you have now. The feedback culture of each company is going to vary widely. It is essential that you receive feedback from your boss to know how to improve. If your company regularly gives you feedback and holds meetings about your progress, think about the things said, especially things that have been repeated. If your feedback is mostly positive, and youâve been working hard on strengthening your weaknesses, it may be time for you to ask for a promotion. If your feedback is mostly negative, you may want to take some more time to fix the recurring issues before tackling new things. If you work somewhere that doesnât give regular feedback, it is a good idea to seek some out to know where you stand. Ask your supervisor or boss to schedule a meeting with you to discuss your work thus far and come up with ways to keep improving. After the meeting, take into consideration what you can improve on and put forth your efforts towards those things. If your meeting was mostly positive, this may be your cue to ask for a promotion. It is very important that you meet with your supervisor specifically to discuss your progress and your contributions so far. You should not be making assumptions about your work based on day-to-day comments. Most often, the things discussed every day will be negative: things that need fixed or have gone wrong. A job well done can easily go unnoticed. If you solely base your judgment on the day-to-day, you may have a more negative view of yourself which may not be accurate. 3. The How It is essential that you speak to your boss directly when asking for a promotion. In the case that your boss doesnât have a lot of influence, then youâll want to speak to someone with an even higher role, perhaps the CEO. Make sure to set up a meeting that allows plenty of time for you to pitch your promotional case and plenty of time for follow-up questions and negotiation. By this point, you should have gathered some key information about your success in the company and why you think youâre suited for a promotion. If there is a specific vacant role that youâre after, make sure you touch on how you would take on the aspects of that role. No conversation will go exactly the same, but remember to always remain calm, confident, and respectful regardless of the outcome. Although scary at first, the task of asking for a promotion can be broken down into easier, more manageable steps. Remember to believe in your abilities and act on those beliefs. Youâll be on your way to a better role in no time.
Types of Classes You Should and Shouldnt Take Online
Types of Classes You Should and Shouldnt Take Online Image via https://pixabay.com Opt for Online If: The Class Fits Your Interests One of the major struggles that can come with taking an online course is trying to stay motivated to pay attention to lectures and to complete all of your coursework on time when you donât have a professor holding you accountable and donât have to sit in a classroom during class time. As a result, your chances for success will be increased if you take an online course in a subject that truly interests you, as that way youâll be more likely to have the necessary self-motivation to focus and study hard. If you find the course material boring to begin with, thereâs a good chance that youâll lose interest throughout the duration of the course, and you may struggle to stay on track. For this reason, itâs a good idea to reserve some classes that youâre excited about to take online. You Have a Lot of Independent Work Though you can still connect with your classmates online when taking an online course, it can be more difficult to coordinate group work and projects when youâre not all in the same place at the same time. Being able to work independently will in some ways be an advantage, as you wonât have to worry about whether or not your classmates are getting their share of the work done without you. In addition, if you choose to take an online course so you donât have to commute to campus, you probably wonât want to be driving all the way to campus just for a group project, so to ensure that you maintain the convenience that youâre looking for, try to find a class that allows you to work on your own most of the time. You Know the Subject Well Having to go sit in a classroom every day when youâre able to pick up on the course material faster than your classmates can be frustrating, so if you feel like you want to set your own pace in a course, it can be helpful to take it online. Often with online courses youâll be able to speed through topics you understand well and slow down for others as necessary, so if you feel like youâd be bored sitting through a classroom and learning material at your professorâs pace, taking that course online can be a great alternative. Avoid an Online Course If: You Struggle with the Subject While itâs not necessarily true that youâll receive less assistance from your professor in an online course than you typically would, it will likely still be harder for you to do well in a course taken online if you already know that you have trouble with the subject or specific topic. Though youâll still be able to email your professor with questions, you may not have the opportunity to ask your questions as they ariseâ"that is, while your professor explains it in a video or when youâre going over course materials on your own. The Subject Matter Can Be Dry One of the benefits of online classesâ"their flexibilityâ"can also be a major downside if you decide to take a class covering a topic that is dry or unexciting by nature. Taking an online course means that you can set your own schedule, and you may find that itâs difficult to motivate yourself to complete the necessary coursework if you donât have a set class time. In addition, you may not have the help of your professor or classmates to keep things interesting and to help make a dry subject matter become more exciting. If you take the class while youâre at home alone, it can seem even more difficult to get through. You Want to Study for It with Classmates While you can still meet up with your classmates for an online course, it may be more difficult to get to know them, and therefore hard to determine who would make a good study buddy. In addition, not all of your classmates for an online course may be nearby, so it may be inconvenient for them to meet up to study together. If you feel like youâd really benefit by having a study group for a certain class, it may be better to stick to a traditional classroom-style course, so itâs easier for you to form that group. Online courses can have major advantages, but youâll have to choose them carefully to ensure that you benefit from the convenience and independence they bring. Before you register for classes, make sure that you take into account these factors!
The Types of Tasks You May Do Working in Retail
The Types of Tasks You May Do Working in Retail via Pixabay You probably already know what a retail associate does in his or her line of work. These types of people are almost everywhere you go shopping. At Wal-Mart, at Target, at Best Buy, at the mall, retail associates are often eager to tell you about the storeâs sales or new products, assist in finding items that are more difficult to find, answering questions of regular shoppers and the occasional curious visitors, and ringing up purchases at the register. Like cashiers at grocery stores or convenience stores, people who work in retail help to manage the cash registers and keep track of the money that goes in and goes out. Sometimes, we encounter retail associates throughout the day without even realizing that weâre talking to someone in retail. A good retail associate is extremely knowledgeable about the product or service that is being sold. They also have to have a good deal of patience when dealing with all customers, especially the difficult ones that are bound to come through on any given day. Additionally, a person working in retail must be genuinely friendly, have a cheerful attitude, is a naturally happy person, and have a willingness to go above and beyond for the customer without a lot of prodding to do so. Long hours, busy days, and nights and weekend work are often a normal course of operation in many places of retail. The busiest time for retail stores is often in the fall/winter months and of course on holidays and special occasions throughout the year. For example, 4th of July may be a busy day/weekend, Memorial Day may be the same way, and graduation/back to school season may be busy as well. In short, if youâre not the type of person who is cheerful, helpful, and energetic, retail is probably not the right job for you. If you are this type of person and can see a future in the world of retail, you may be asking what are some of the job positions you can hold? Good question. There are a couple job titles that you can hold and gradually grow into others as time goes on. Most new hires will begin as stockers, cashiers, baggers, or sales associates. These are very important jobs as those in such roles also serve as the face of the company in many regards. Companies have been given a bad rap by customers simply because a cashier was rude or unhelpful. On the other hand, some customers love going to certain places not just because of what they can get but because of the people who provide the service. Then there are middle positions which include team leaders, floor directors, or staff supervisors. Some retail stores even have a lead cashier or someone who unofficially acts as the go-to person, the problem solver, or the one who has earned the respect of his or her peers. In such a role, you will ensure law and order are kept. For example, youâll make sure other employees sign in and sign out on time, take appropriate breaks, and work well with each other. Then there are managerial roles. A department manager, store manager, branch manager, assistant manager, or chain manager is often responsible for multiple teams and sometimes, multiple locations. People in this position are responsible for onboarding new staff, training current and new staff, establishing goals, making decisions, and ensuring consistent service is given across all stores or chains. A fair amount of skill is needed to work in retail. However, if you have the personality, most places will offer training for what is specific to that store. There are many people who rise through the ranks of retail without an education. This is not permission for you to drop school altogether; school is still important, but you can learn specific aspects of the business. Those with a bachelorâs degree, or even an associateâs degree, have a better chance of getting managerial roles quicker. Abundant opportunities exist in the world of retail. We are always going to need that extra hand to guide or that person to smile at the door or at the register when we come through after a long day at work or school. Finding a position in retail is a great option for a first job in high school and college. It is also a good choice for those who are interested in selling specific products (e.g., selling electronics at Best Buy or selling clothes at Macyâs). Retail can also be internally rewarding. It presents the opportunity to help people with some aspect of their day. Kindness and helpfulness indeed go a long way in this business. And youâll enjoy the environment youâre working in much better if you find some real meaning in it, and not just putting in the hours to get a paycheck.
