Starting a new job soon? Your first day isn’t just about showing up—it’s your chance to set the tone for everything that follows. šŸ’¼āœØ

Here’s how to make that first impression unforgettable (for all the right reasons):

āœ… Be on time—better yet, be early.
Punctuality sends a clear message: you’re reliable, respectful, and ready.

āœ… Bring your own notebook and pen.
Even if your new company provides swag, coming prepared shows initiative and intention.

āœ… Be fully present.
During onboarding sessions, give your full attention. Put your phone away unless it’s absolutely urgent. Active listening sets you apart.

āœ… Ask thoughtful questions.
A couple of genuine questions during onboarding shows you're engaged and already thinking like a team player.

āœ… Complete the onboarding survey with care.
Your insights could improve the experience for future teammates—people you’ll be collaborating with and building culture alongside.

šŸ‘‰ Your goal? Start strong, build early trust, and position yourself as someone who adds value from day one.
Because your first impression isn’t just a moment—it’s a message. šŸš€

āž”ļø Pre-Screen Call Prep-This isn’t ā€˜just a call’—this is your gateway to the interview room.

What is a Pre-Screen Call?

Usually the first human contact with the company (often with a recruiter or HR) ,15–30 minutes max.

Purpose: To check if you meet the basic requirements and are a good culture fit. This call can lead to a rejection or your interview invite—so it matters!

Listen first, then speak with purpose.

Here’s what to focus on:

Brief but clear self-introduction:

ā€œHi! I’m a [profession] with [ # years] of experience in [industry]. I specialize in [key strength]. I’m excited about this role because [specific reason].ā€

Be confident but conversational. Show that you’ve done your homework:

ā€œI saw you work with [project/client/industry], and that really aligns with my background in [related skill].ā€

Ask Them. Always ask something thoughtful—this shows you’re serious.

āœ… ā€œWhat does success look like in this role in the first 3–6 months?ā€
āœ… ā€œIs this a new role or a replacement?ā€
āœ… ā€œWhat are the team dynamics or culture like?ā€
āœ… ā€œWhat’s the interview process like from here?ā€

šŸ’” Bonus: Ask what the next steps are and their expected timeline.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

āŒ Rambling about your full resume
āŒ Sounding robotic or reading answers
āŒ Asking about salary right away (unless they bring it up)
āŒ Saying, ā€œI’ll do anythingā€ — sounds desperate
āŒ Not knowing the company or role at all

šŸ›  Tip: Don’t multitask. Take the call in a quiet space with your resume, job description, and notes in front of you.

šŸ“‹ Pre-Screen Prep Checklist:

āœ… Review the job posting
āœ… Research the company (1–2 facts to mention)
āœ… Practice your ā€œAbout Meā€ pitch
āœ… Have 2–3 smart questions ready
āœ… Print or open your resume
āœ… Be on time, sound alert and warm

Before You Send a Single Resume… Let’s Talk MINDSET.

Before you update your LinkedIn headline or hit ā€œApply,ā€ pause.
because job hunting isn’t just about resumes or keywords—it’s about strategy.

And the best strategy? Starts with your mindset.

āœ… Calm.
āœ… Focused.
āœ… Intentional.

Most people panic-apply. They send 100 applications and hope for magic.
You? You're going in with clarity.

When Should You Start Looking?

āœ”ļø When you feel like you’ve stopped growing.
āœ”ļø When Sunday dread becomes a weekly routine.
āœ”ļø After maternity leave, graduation, or a major life shift.
āœ”ļø Before burnout or layoffs hit.

🧠 Pro Tip: Don’t wait until you’re desperate. That energy shows.
Ask Yourself First: Before you hit ā€œsubmit,ā€ reflect:

āž”ļø What kind of work energizes me?
āž”ļø What do I never want to do again?
āž”ļø What does my ideal schedule and team look like?

Avoid These Traps:

🚫 Applying to 100+ roles with the same resume
🚫 Saying, ā€œI’ll take anythingā€
🚫 Letting rejection destroy your confidence

šŸ’” Remember: You’re not for everyone—and that’s your power.
Set Clear Goals:

šŸ“Œ How many jobs will you apply to weekly?
šŸ“Œ Which companies actually excite you?
šŸ“Œ Will you tailor your resume every time?

Your job search doesn’t need to feel chaotic. With the right mindset, it becomes a strategic move—not a scramble.

Before you apply for anything, read this: "Job search success starts in your head, not your inbox". ā¤ļø

āž”ļø What to Include When Announcing a New Job on LinkedIn

Just landed a new job? Don’t just post ā€œI’m excited to shareā€¦ā€ and call it a day. Here’s how to make your announcement authentic, professional, and impactful.

Whether you’re starting your dream job or taking a bold career pivot, your LinkedIn announcement should reflect more than just a title change.
Here are the 5 key points to include:

1. Gratitude for the Past
Thank your former employer, mentors, or team. It shows humility and builds bridges.

2. Clarity About the New Role
Clearly mention your new title, company, and industry focus. This helps your network understand your direction.

3. What You’re Excited About
Are you solving meaningful problems? Leading something new? Supporting a mission you care about? Share it!

4. Your Journey (Optional but Powerful)
If you overcame a layoff, switched industries, or returned to work after a break—mentioning this makes your post more human and inspiring.

5. Invite to Connect or Collaborate
Your post is a signal. Let people know you're open to meaningful connections, mentorship, or partnerships in your field.

šŸ’” Pro tip: Add a photo of yourself, your first day setup, or even just a branded visual—posts with visuals perform better.

If you’ve recently landed a role and aren’t sure how to make your announcement, save this or tag someone who might need it!

🚨 When Employer Branding Fails: The Recruitment Lessons Behind 23andMe’s Bankruptcy

Another headline, another hard lesson for the business world: 23andMe has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

This isn’t just a finance or biotech story—it’s a recruitment red flag.
Here’s why ā¬‡ļø

For years, 23andMe was the golden child of health tech: innovative, mission-driven, and backed by big names. But when internal cracks appear—breaches of trust, loss of consumer confidence, and a shifting public narrative—you don’t just lose customers.

You lose top talent. And fast.

āž”ļø The real cost of broken trust isn’t just financial—it’s human.

Talented professionals walk away from brands that no longer align with their values, and recruiting new talent becomes a PR battle, not just a hiring process.

At Jama HR Express, we help companies avoid this spiral by:

āœ”ļø Building strong employer brands that attract and retain
āœ”ļø Hiring with transparency and culture-fit in mind
āœ”ļø Acting fast, because reputation gaps widen quickly

Here’s the takeaway:

🧠 Innovative hiring must go hand-in-hand with internal integrity.
šŸ’” Speed is key, but trust is everything.

šŸ“‰ If your reputation collapses, your recruitment pipeline does too.

Let’s build companies people want to work for—before the headlines hit.
