job titles
Names for professions
Job titles are the formal names given to positions within organizations: CEO, marketing director, senior analyst.
They indicate rank, function, and area of responsibility.
Job titles vary wildly across industries—what one company calls a manager, another calls a coordinator or lead.
Title inflation has made once-prestigious designations like vice president common at lower levels.
In resumes and LinkedIn profiles, job titles serve as shorthand for experience and seniority.
