use the english titles


Explanation:
Numera har många företag börjat använda de engelska titlarna så att de förstås i hela världen. Om du googlar en titel på Svenska goolge, så ser du de engelska titlarna blandade med de svenska dokumenten.

executive assistant (and other titles)
Chefssäljare


Explanation:
Ett praktexempel på hur det har gått inflation i titlarna i USA - secretary användes inte längre. Numera antingen Administrative Assistant eller (för mera erfaren/högre nivå) Executive Assistant.

Likaledes "Senior Inside Sales Representative" = (Senior)Innesäljare eller telefonförsäljare

Explanation:
En "assistant" är alltid en assistent, inte en ledande befattningshavare i ett företag. Ofta fungerar vårt gamla "vd-sekreterare", men inslaget av engelska i affärssvenskan gör att det mer svengelska "vd-assistent" vinner allt mer insteg.
