1. Know the alphabet-I'm not kidding.

2. Be in constant motion, no moping around the office.

3. Keep a notebook handy to write any questions you have. Don't pretend to know something. If you're not sure where somehting goes, make a note of it and ASK.

1. Know your alphabet (as the poster above already mentioned)
2. Be consistent and organized. If you aren't' it kind of defeats the purpose of records management.
3. Familiarize yourself with ARMA's indexing and filing standard.
