Quick question, just had one of the interview with the hiring manager and found out there’s misunderstanding over the job level (they quoted as director but actually is a avp level and way below my expectation/current level).
There’s another interview set up next week with the hiring manager’s manager. Should I politely decline the interview so not to waste both parties time or keep the call just as a courtesy/informational call?

There’s always a chance they upgrade the role for the right person. If the role sounds compelling and you are enjoying the people you’re interviewing with, wow them and see if they can make it work under the title you deserve.

This happened to me a month ago. I negotiated for a higher salary and they ended up put me into higher position because the budgeted salary for the position that I originally applied for was lower than my expectation. Ended up getting higher title + desired salary.

I would at least email or set up a quick chat to resolve that issue. Perhaps they have another opening or are flexible? I wouldn't burn any bridges

Keep the call and after intro, share the misunderstanding. Mention you dig the team and see an opportunity to expand… to do what you want. Since you might be talking to the right person at this point, can you do it? They’ll probably decline but what if they don’t

You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take
