How do I get a promotion in my job?

That depends on the job, but I have found that the best way is to check for higher up openings and take the initiative to apply for them.  Most companies love to give higher positions to loyal employees.

Talk with the owners about this. \n\nSay for instance, I have noticed several of the girls have been given a promotion for Smoothie Supervisor. Is there a reason WHY I haven't? What can I do to get the next Supervisors position? What qualifications do I need in order to get a Supervisors Position?

Honesty is the best policy. When promoting people you must be able to trust that they will act with integrity. The main question for management will be, how can you ensure this not occurring if you receive the promotion?

Give them positive incentives.  If they meet their work goals they get their basic salary.  If they exceed them they get a bonus.  Encourage the positive more than discouraging the negative.

I would schedule a meeting with your immediate supervisor.  Bring accomplishments, goals you have met, the last raise you recieved, if you do more than just your job, and any other notes you may have to the meeting.  Most people ask for a raise about once a year.

Well the best thing to do is keep a diary of the extra work you have done.  When your diary satisfies you, show him it and ask for a raise.  Tell him, I am able to do two jobs at once and after working hard for this company I am hoping to get a raise.  Because if you ask for less responsibility, they might disrespect you.  But you sound like your being pushed over.  So keep the diary and then hand it to him/her.

Remember, salaries are based on the position. It doesn't how efficient or how good you are, you get the same pay as the guy who does less work than you.\n\nTo really move up or get promoted, you need to show leadership and the ability to take control of other people around you.\n\nBase on what is going with you, I would start looking for another job. In the mean time, to accumulate lots of money when you retire, I would start a Roth IRA and invest in mutual funds.

There are many ways to get to a manager position.  Some get there by deliberate action, others by pure accident or luck.\n\nIf you belong to an organization and want to move up, find out what are the expected competencies of a manager.  There may be formal documents stating these required competencies or skills.  If nothing is formally written, observe what are common qualities of the current managers or simply ask your boss, a senior manager or human resources about what is expected to get to a managerial position.  What developmental opportunities are present to be able to sharpen those skills? \n\nThen draw up a development plan that will help you get the position.  Realistically though, even if you are ready to assume the position, if there's no vacancy at the top, you may have to wait a little longer.  There are very few positions at the top.  You've got to be exceptional to get ahead of the rest.\n\nOf course, some will say the easiest (?) way to go up without all the extra trouble is to simply be the kind of person that will stand out because you not only meet your goals but exceed them, consistently!  Couple this with great people skills and you should be at the top of management's list of next to be promoted people.

Research the positions you are trying to fill.  Talk to people who are in those positions and ask questions.  People generally like to talk about their jobs, especially if they are good at what they do and know their business.  Find a co-worker you can trust and ask them about their first few months and how they over came some of the challenges you are facing.  Talk to your supervisor about ways to improve your knowledge of the positions you are dealing with.  Your company probably has lots of resources that are available to you.  Asking questions will show your superiors your interest and commitment to your job and will help you find greater satisfaction in what you do to earn your paycheck.

Ask your boss "So, when should I start with my training".  \n\nIF your boss has no plans for you at all, It will put him/her on the defensive.  Most people who get a promotion express an interest in more responsibility.  If you haven't expressed any interest, then he may not even think of you.  \n\nIF your boss actually though of you as a candidate, then you may just get it.

Just do your job well. Result usually speaks best for yourself so if you do a great job, it will be the best way to impress your employer.

Become motivate and willing to learn new tasks.  Ask your immediate supervisor for extra work.  Also, if you are only at a diploma level, start taking college computer or business courses in the evening.  Your employer may even reimburse you for them.  There is always growth in a company, there is just a need for the person to be qualified for that growth.  I've known people who started out as shipping clerks for my company and are now dept heads.  Keep your head up, i was in a similar situation and now I'm in networking.  I was just always willing to learn and I think that's what help me.  Good luck.

I find it best to be very positive every minute of the day.  Sucking-up to the person who does the promoting also , sadly helps.  Don't gossip or listen to gossip.  Talk about events, places, things, but NEVER people. If you deal w/customers or clients, constantly go over & beyond the call of duty... it will get back to your supervisor.  Good Luck

Take them out to dinner or lunch on your new "bosses salary" and be honest and straigt forward.\n""Luke", I have come to value your friendship and man, have we had some good times together! I would like for that to continue and wanted to get your feelings on my promotion. (Actively listen to that person.) Let them know that of course their will be some chamges with how you two must interact on the job but you will treat them with the utmost respect and hopefully (as the boss) you will earn theirs in return. As their friend you know how valuable they are to the company because you've seen how hard they work, now as the boss, you can make sure that as their hard work continues, you will make sure they get the recognition they deserve.

Everyone who doesn't get promoted thinks the person who got promoted is a suck up and kiss ass.  Victims can't accept the fact that maybe they didn't get promoted through some fault of their own, heaven forbid they might not be energetic enough, have the right skills, be enthusiastic, etc.  Past behavior is a good indicator of future behavior. Anyway, I congratulate you for your promotion, and many more to you if that is what you seek.  P.S.  the best way to get promoted is to do an excellent job at what you are doing.

You just walk right up to your boss and tell him/her.  If you are forthright about it, it shows you have what it takes to come to the point and want to come up in the world.  That is what a boss wants from an employee.........ambition and guts.
