Job: Senior Executive Assistant (Canada)

I've negotiated for a different title and higher salary and GOT IT! What I was finding is that my company was using "Administrative Assistants" for anyone who was in administration. Based on the level of the executive I worked for and the type of duties I did, I created a profile for similar positions in the area that had better titles. I took it farther and identified the appropriate salary range they needed to compensate me with in order to keep me there. They were receptive to my research and suggestions, and I got the title changed to Executive Assistant for all the Admins working with Execs - and, for myself, I got the increase in salary I was looking for. Be thorough and industry-applicable in your research to get the results you want.

Not being fairly paid within the particular organization I work for. Bias: yes, it seems that a very junior individual is being paid 50% more than they should be due to the fact that they are a personal friend of one of the executives and have a personal history with them.
