"I'd start by getting to know the members of my team, the communication style and work style of each individual, and adapt from there. I'd work hard side-by-side with them and keep my head down. I'd exhibit positivity and ask for their insights and tips and tricks to get the work done as efficiently as possible. I'd actively listen and participate and keep asking questions to absorb as much as I can. Once I feel I've built some strong working relationships, I'd keep trying to identify kaizen opportunities and would innovate from there. I'm here to contribute and make the team stronger as a whole. That's my goal."

Unilever's ideal candidate will exhibit strong interpersonal and communication skills and spend the first 90 days building relationships, asking questions, and learning how to do the job and why they do things the way they do. Without having that valuable information, it will be impossible to make an impact. So, their ideal candidate will understand the building blocks required to make a meaningful impact and contribute.

Map out your approach to entering a new work environment, introducing yourself with the aim of relationship building while introducing your work style to your new teams. Consider this a 90-day plan, where you can study and learn their systems and processes while taking notes and asking questions. This will outline any opportunities for making an impact without leading with presumption. However, your initial focus needs to meet the company's expectations as outlined in the job posting or job description. For instance, if the job description mentions a "must-have" of strong communication skills, be sure to comment on how you plan to utilize your exceptional communication skills to see success in a short amount of time.
