2. You Did Your Job:

If you do the job that you are paid for and meet the expectation, don’t expect to climb the corporate ladder. Do bear in mind that employers are not willing to promote candidates who are not willing to explore uncharted territories. If you aspire to get promoted, it is essential for you to be ready to carryout tasks that are outside your comfort zone, seize opportunities, delivering results that are beyond expectations and provide immense value.

3. Your desired Title Doesn’t Exist:

Some candidates are overlooked for a promotion due to the fact that their promotion requires the creation of entirely new position which may not be necessary or a position that isn’t vacant. The increased workload associated with the position which might be too hot to handle or the lack of budget might be other reasons that can be seen as the factors for denying a promotion. In such cases, you may either opt to wait-it-out, or job-hop to land a position that you desire.
