Question about my title.
So I am in the process of updating my resume before applying for a job at another firm. Please see my other post on the forum for a bit of background on why I am considering an exit.
Anyway, my current firm is so small (3 people including me) and informal that we really don't have titles, and so I just call myself an analyst when someone asks me who I am in relation to the partners. In reality, I directly advise the partners on every decision, work on the models for/with them, actively participate in strategy meetings, conference calls and negotiations. I also source investments and deal with outside brokers, etc.
Now that I have to look at my responsibilities in a critical manner, I think that giving myself the title of analyst isn't exactly the right term for my role in the firm, and will probably be doing me a disservice in the job market.
I don't believe an analyst would have so much authority in a normal firm, but I don't know if I could just say I was a VP or something. The partners have basically told me I can call myself whatever I want when I need to, so I figure I should milk this liberty as much as I can.
What would you guys do in my situation?
Associate/Senior Associate?
Senior associate sounds pretty good to me. How's the job market for senior associates? I've been out of touch with the job market for quite a while.
How many years out of undergrad are you? How many years of experience do you have?
I think with 3-4 years, associate/senior associate would be fine. 4+, then VP would be fine too given some people make it to the VP level at PE funds with around 4-5 years of experience at that fund.
Your other post says 3 years so I'd recommend Senior Associate. What type of shops are you applying at?
