So you noticed the new job board posting on your way back from lunch. They finally decided1 to fill the assistant manager spot in your department! Should you go for it anyway? Here are some ways to tell if it's time to power up the corporate2 ladder.
1. You're currently one notch3 lower than assistant manager. If your job title includes the word Senior, then you've likely earned some recognition at your place of employment. When you go for the gold, people will realize you're quite a gem4. Start getting noticed for your ambition and drive!
2. A large portion of the department responsibilities falls into your lap. Don't underestimate your own worth. If you're currently doing the work of two or more people and doing it well, then you should be compensated5 for it.
3. Your manager consistently looks to you for solutions. If you're playing problem-solver at the office, that's a pretty good sign that people value your input6. You've already got a foot in the door!
4. If your manager confides7 in you regularly. If your boss trusts you with everything from top-secret office rumors8 to "what to do with that belligerant marketing9 coordinator," to the fight he had with his wife last night, this speaks volumes about his opinion of you.
5. You're well-known and respected among your colleagues. Do people smile and greet you by name when you walk into a group setting? Do managers of other departments frequently solicit10 your opinion? When the boss is away, do your peers appoint you to act in his absence?To know that your fellow employees admire and respect you for the job you do is another. One of the biggest indicators11 you're ready for a promotion12 is if your boss's boss has faith in your ability. To take a support system you need to get ahead.
