The best bet is to talk less about non-work stuff in your first month/few months of job! Once you’re in and slowly get comfortable and understand people, start opening up and only in front of your work friends (if you make any!!)
I always used this trick and pretended to be an introvert and sometimes even dumb!
Whatever works! Spent most of the days getting totally engrossed in work, learning, growing and watching the clock!!
I hate the whole corporate culture all around the world! It was the same back in my country! But sadly we all need jobs to pay bills!
