I’ve seen roles with titles that sound junior but actually carry a lot of responsibility, and sometimes the pay doesn’t match. I’m trying to get better at asking how the title compares to industry norms before negotiating. Has anyone pushed for a higher salary because the role was more senior than the title suggested?

Im trying to figure out how to do this right now. The title was “senior analyst” but it’s reporting to a VP. If I get an offer I’m going to try to ask for a title + pay adjustment or at least understand what the next step up would be

Job titles are normally all over the place. I would focus on the responsibilities listed and communicated as far as what’s expected for the role.

Job titles are meaningless outside of very large organizations. The pay is a much better indicator of the actual level of the role.

Hey! Any Google folks know if it’s possible to negotiate fully remote if a contract role is hybrid?

I just think it’s a fair trade off if I’d be allowed to work fully remote. I’m also trying to have flexibility to manage my Airbnb business in a different country. Same time zone as the home office if I’d travel weeks at a time.
