Tips Needed - Leaving current job this week & starting new job next week

Hi all,

Hope you're all well. A light subject here - do you have any valuable tips that I could get as I am leaving my current job this week and starting a new one next week. Are there any tips that you can give me based your experience, for example what to do on the remaining last days, what to check/prepare, preparation for new job and what to do on the first week on the new job.

Thanks very much and hope to hear from you soon x

    Just do your normal job on your last few days, whilst emptying your desk/locker/workstation or just take any personal belongings home.

    Leave

    Have a rest over the weekend.

    Go to your new job on Monday,take your P45 with you and give it to whoever needs it,
    listen to your bosses instructions, do what they are paying you to do. Thats about it really.

    Hope the job turns out well for you.
    make the most of it, we are only here for the weekend.
    and we will never, ever return.

    i think it would very much depend on the jobs. with your current job carry on as normal and try to avoid starting any work which you wouldnt be able to complete in the time you have left, unless you speak to your manager and he approves it.

    when you start your new job they will undoubtedly have a procedure to follow for new starters
    Birthdays are good for you. Statistics show that the people who have the most live the longest.
