What does current title mean when applying for a job?

The term “current title” when applying for a job refers to the position or role that you currently hold in your present job or employment. It is the official job title assigned to you by your employer that describes your responsibilities, role, or function within the organization.

For example:

• If you are a Marketing Manager, then your “current title” is Marketing Manager.
• If you are an Administrative Assistant, your current title is Administrative Assistant.

When applying for a new job, employers ask for your current title to understand your current role, experience level, and the scope of your responsibilities. This helps them gauge how your background and skills might align with the position you are applying for.

In short, your “current title” reflects your current professional identity within your present job or organization.
