GRAIL interview questions

The interview process itself was fine, just very lengthy (6 weeks from first interview to receiving an offer). I accepted and signed a formal offer for a Senior Manager role. However, immediately after signing the offer letter and once the onboarding process began, I discovered the company had mapped the role internally as a "Sales Operations Analyst". When I raised this, the explanation provided was that their internal structure classifies roles without direct reports as "Analysts," regardless of the "Senior Manager" title on the signed offer letter. I was assured that my "outward facing" title was still Sr. Manager and the responsibilities of the role would not change. I don't know if this is a biotech industry specific thing, but I was not convinced this actually was a senior role as advertised, as I never encountered a 2-title role in my 20+ years of career before. Not to mention, I did not see how a Sr. Manager could be equivalent to a Sales Analyst. I did rescind the acceptance of the offer afterwards. What further reinforced my suspicions that this was never a senior role to begin with, is the fact that the same exact opening (after I rescinded my acceptance) is currently being posted with a "Manager" title, which is already downgraded from Senior Manager If your professional title and seniority level matter to you, do not take the job posting title at face value. Explicitly ask what the "Internal Title" or "Workday Grade" will be before you sign / start the interview process. In my case, the discrepancy was a material change from the role I interviewed for. Be careful of "Title Inflation".
