I started at the beginning of May at a new company as an Account Executive (3 long years as a AAE at my old company) - I was onboarded for two months and then my boss, who I LOVE left for maternity leave for 4 months. My next direct report was in a VP/Director role so wasn’t as close to the things I was doing and I had to learn a lot on my own and problem solve 24/7. It’s now November and was wondering when it would be appropriate to bring up the conversation of a Senior Account Executive role?

Have a six-month check in around now and ask your boss if she thinks you’re on track for advancing to the next level next year. You’re extremely unlikely to get promoted in less than a year but it can’t hurt to get the dialogue going sooner than that - especially if you’re going to find out you still have things to work on before you’re ready.

Also, if anyone is willing to look over my resume and give me tips on how to make it more presentable for recruiters in DA that would be very helpful. Thanks
