Around four months into your position at Mayo Clinic, reality starts to set in. The newness and excitement of the job may have started to wear off. If you haven’t done so already, this is a good time for you to talk about your job with your supervisor. Ask them what they think about your work performance and if they have any suggestions on how to improve. Building a good relationship with your supervisor will go a long way!
Remember, don’t expect to proceed too rapidly through these stages. It can take a year to become productive in a new job.
