Question, when you get an offer, should you write on your pre-employment app your official title only or the one you included on your resume that’s more descriptive? Would something raise a red flag?

For reference, there isn’t an exaggerated title on my resume, but since my title is just “Consultant” wanted to add more description based on the role I had on my projects.

As long as you can clarify what your actual role is and disclose upfront what your actual title is - no one cares

My SO changed jobs and she put Sr PM on her resume her actual work title was exec director but it made no sense. She clarified with HR upfront.

I am an email marketing specialist. I am approaching my one year at my new job. I have been going above & beyond. I have been recognized by my boss that I have been doing great as well. I have been implementing new strategies, completing all assignments on time, and I do the most in all of our meetings, interviews and business events. How much can I ask for a raise?

My remit quadrupled+ in a recent re-org with no increase in pay/promotion, my new director is new to the company and was zero help, and I was passed over for recent promotion during the comp cycle. The new director essentially began shutting me down any time I ask for clarity in my career progression. Now they have taken credit for the project I’ve been building over the past year+ without giving me props whatsoever to higher ups. What is the best plan of action here?
