Due to a wide variety of personalities, relationships can take time to form. Being sure to have open communication and allow for casual conversation to get to know people personally is essential. Share some of your values and how those help you to build meaningful relationships with people.

"I understand that some relationships come quickly and others take time to nurture. When starting a new job, all I can do is be my true self and let my personality, integrity, and reliability speak for themselves. I also like to ask people about their families and interests outside of work to get to know them on a more personal level and better relate to them."

In order to build new relationships when I start working for a new company, I take a variety of actions. I arrive early to spend a few moments getting to know my new colleagues or supervisors on a one-on-one basis. I ask them about themselves and contribute equally to the conversation. As an active listener, I let them know that I am there to listen. By working hard and knowing when and how to request assistance from my colleagues and supervisors, I begin to build an excellent reputation. I also work to understand what everyone's role is around me so that I can contribute to the success of my team specifically and my company in general. By taking these actions, I can demonstrate that I am a strong independent worker as well as a valuable team player.
