If you haven't already picked up "Learning Perl" and "Programming Perl" (both in 3rd edition I think), pick them up now. Read "Learning Perl" cover to cover. Use "Programming Perl" (i.e. the Camel book) as a reference and/or read sections relevant to what you do.
Other worthwhile books to consider after you've finished "Learning Perl":
Though, what you should start with will largely be driven by what your job requires (cgi, mod_perl, socket programming, dbi, etc)
Also, do yourself a favor and learn how to use the debugger early. Look for Devel::ptkdb at "search.cpan.org". Oh, and if you've never heard of CPAN, go and take a look (www.cpan.org or search.cpan.org if you want to peruse the modules).
