Monster : Your calling is calling The monthly M word, September 2009
Term time
It's always a shock when you come back from your glorious holiday and have to start thinking about what to wear again – thermal underwear, sensible shoes, a coat... and that's just for the office. Firstly this month we have a little piece on how to gain a promotion – and it's nothing to do with luck – you've got to, erm, work at it. Next, ever wondered exactly what your rights are at work? (yes, so do we sometimes). We guide you through all the terms; from ciggie breaks to sabbaticals. Finally, (come on, stop dreaming about that cold drink by the pool) we have a whole range of free tools and services to help boost your career potential. Interested? Thought so.

Up, up and away
Yes, it's a classic tale. You do all the good work but someone else gets the key to the executive loo. Heartbreaking stuff isn't it? Read our guide on ensuring that your effort is rewarded with the promotion it deserves.
