manager vs sr.manager vs director I am a sr.manager, I got an offer for a manager role from a startup. Salary discussion hasnt started yet! current TC: 180K, YOE: 10
Very. A lot of titles have connotations associated with them. Therefore, when you apply at other places, everyone you’d talk to will form an opinion of you before they meet you based on the titles you put on the resume.
Who looks at coworker’s resumes? Lol It’s all relative. In banking EVERYONE is a VP. At Google, there’s less than 10. A director at a small company might only be seen as a first-level managers at others. At my last job, my “director” managed 2 non-managers. They wouldn’t even be considered for a first-level manager at a larger company.
Ummm people who hire you? Recruiters, interviewers, hiring managers etc. If you have a title that doesn’t fit their idea of who they want to hire, you get rejected way too fast. Trust me so many recruiters would just read my resume and reject me based on the title because they would nt bother to read the responsibilities I had. At that point I had to just start putting a different title. And it worked.
It’s only important if it’s tied to job levels and salary bands AT THAT COMPANY. At various companies a CEO can make $100k and junior developers at others make $150k. It’s more about the role and what you’ll be doing.
