Be nice. And helpful. Generally when someone asks you for help on something, or when you are assigned to a project, that means they need help! Take the time to understand how it works, reason correctly about what needs to get done, be self-starting, and get the stuff done. Clearly communicate with others in your team and don't be afraid to use your supervisor to resolve problems that keep moving things forward. Be the guy that can get given something and sort it out - or start something new. Any work environment is very different from school - much to learn about the way things work.
