Monster (Creepily) Croons, ‘Your Calling is Calling!’

Maybe to boost its reputation beyond “that site where spammers and pyramid schemes score college kids,” Monster.com is launching a no-holds-barred campaign called “Your Calling is Calling.” So far we’ve managed to score one spot, which reminds us of a low-impact music video by Third Eye Blind or possibly Creed.

The BBDO Worldwide campaign will appear on TV, print, radio and online. The pressie says it’s all about getting people to “take an introspective look at their lives by shining a light on the connection between a job and personal fulfillment.”

That’s all well and good, but JSMN calls the Monster.com selection crappy and cookie-cutter. Burrrrn.
