Monster. Your calling is calling.The M word 12th of May 2010
Hung up on politics?
Well, it's been a long, hard, remorseless grind – no, not Madonna's showbiz career, we're talking about the UK election – and after what seems like a lifetime we're still not sure who's won – it's a bit like cricket really. Changing the subject, don't forget to enter our great competition to win VIP tickets to RockNess Music Festival. It's a hoot. Moving on, our first article this week is all about your hidden ‘transferable skills’ – like being a black belt in Feng Shui – and how to reappraise them. Next up, we offer heartfelt advice on making sure your first impression at an interview isn't your last! Finally, find time to watch our snappy career videos – they have all the answers. Okay, that's it, and remember to stay tuned to Monster.

Be positively positive
You know the saying – you don't get a second chance to make a first impression. Well, that's what happens at interviews. So, don't avoid eye contact, don't look bored, try not to keep scratching that itchy left thigh – and never, ever, ever, ever bad-mouth your old boss – at least until you're hired.
