How to figure out the right title

If you're getting the feeling that what you're consistently working on has moved beyond your title, it may be time to do some digging.

Start by researching different roles in your industry and field. Take notes:

  • What job titles come up a lot? Having a job title that's "familiar" to recruiters can be a big help in a job search.
  • What are the different levels of job titles (e.g., associate, assistant, senior)? You might even want to make a little org chart for yourself to understand where you fall among these levels.
  • What responsibilities in these descriptions match your current role? Which titles most closely represent what you're doing?
