Starting a New Job, Techniques Begin Before You Start

When starting a new job, techniques begin before your first day on the job. One of the things that i have done is try to email or get in touch with your manager or someone on your team and ask about the various technologies that are in use on the team. You know, maybe it's like a framework, maybe it’s a programming language. And just that way, when you show up, you're not just completely blindsigded by all these new technologies. The experience i've had has often been, i only discover when i start a new job what things i do because they're genuinely good.
