What would you consider qualifications to be hired as a senior? Whether it's years, things produced, etc., what is the beginning of being considered for a senior cw position?

My creative director when she promoted me said she knew I was a senior because she knows that no matter what she throws at me that I’ll be able to handle it well and find a good solution without having to check in on me. She also said the amount of production experience I have and the way I’ve handled the productions I’ve been on factored into that too. I’m fairly young for my title so I wasn’t expecting the promotion, but that’s the reasoning she gave me. Feel like it might be brought enough to also apply to a CW.

My agency hired me as a senior after a freelance job but before that I was coming out of ad school with several internships. I'm having an internal debate if I can hold onto that title as I start looking or if no one will give me the level I'm at now. I've been here almost a year.
