What does a job title mean to you?

Just a thought…….How would you like the idea that you could change your job title every 3 to 6 months? Job duties are always growing and evolving so why not let your “title” do the same when it’s time? Why not have the opportunity to change your title to be more meaningful or descriptive of your duties? Why can’t companies include in the offer letter that you and your supervisor can sit down after 3 months and have the chance to create a new title for yourself? Maybe have the freedom to create a title that is all yours and no one else will have that title. Think of the conversation that your new title will start! It’s an opportunity to really express who you are. You will have the chance to change your descriptive title just as your job duties might be changing. Keep everyone on their toes with what your new title will be every 3 or 6 months. If a company offered this to you, would this make you that much more interested in the company?
