They made be anxious to prove the wisdom of their hiring decision to their own boss. Additionally, they may be having some anxiety over whether or not they made the best choice: a sort of buyer's remorse. Employers don't always exit this mode right away, once they hire a candidate. With a sigh of relief, the employer goes from 50 near-identical candidates to only 49 that he/she must somehow choose from. They will extrapolate this into the possibility that you are just, overall, an unreliable person. If you arrive at your job interview with only 3 minutes to spare, disheveled and out-of-breathe, they may start to wonder if you are the type of person who always runs late. I would have warned you that employers will make assumptions and assume the worst. Throughout the hiring process, you found yourself under unnatural scrutiny. So, what's going on here? You Are Under the Microscope In some conservative companies, it may take six months to a year before you get the sense that you have moved out of that "newbie" spot. Maybe you luck out and find yourself a place where the "30 Day Rule" applies. In fact, many companies formally set 3 months down as a probationary period in their new hire policies. You may find some variance from company to company due to their culture. Generally speaking, this is going to take about 3 months. It's going to take some time before you become a trusted member of the team and learn your away around. You new boss and coworkers really don't know you yet. What many people do not realize (including well-seasoned workers), is that the pressure isn't precisely off, once you are hired. Anyone, including those that you may not perceive as an immediate "threat," like, a receptionist, or a parking attendant, has the power to go to your future boss and tell them about the impression-good or bad-that you made upon them. In other words, you have to manage yourself and your interactions carefully in any encounters-in any potential encounters-with anyone working for that company. I have said before, that when you are looking for a new job, every employee of the company that you want to work for is a trusted, valued employee -and you are NOT.
The 3 Month Rule would have saved her from these trials and tribulations, that, as the story turned out, ultimately cost her new job. What was worse, was that when she tried to complain to their mutual manager, he reacted angrily and impatiently, and left her feeling like the whole thing was her fault. Somehow, she'd stepped into the middle of some drama after only two days on the job, and, as a result of the whole hot, sticky, mess, seemed to be getting extra, grueling work assignments and unfair, poor reviews from the employee that had been assigned to train her. I was getting a sinking feeling as a I listened to a newly employed client on the phone.
