" The aforementioned phenomenon is called job title inflation, or "uptitling" and "title-fluffing," according to an Economist report published in June 2010. The report cited statistics released in 2011 by LinkedIn, an online network for professionals, and concluded that everybody seems to be a chief or president of some variety. The LinkedIn statistics showed that from 2005 to 2009, the number of employees with the title "vice president" grew 426 percent, "president" titles increased by 312 percent and "chief" grew 275 percent. 9 percent of the respondents said that they think job title inflation is very common in China. Wei Ruyuan, 25, is the co-founder of TRUEbeauty, a cosmetics company founded this February in Beijing, and also serves as the chief cosmetics experience officer and chief skin care officer, although her company just has around 10 employees. in August 2013, Amy Millman, president of Springboard Enterprises, a nonprofit that helps female entrepreneurs raise equity funds, once refused to admit a person to their accelerator program because the person had four chief titles in a company of seven people. === wikipedia-job-title-inflation HTTP 200 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Job_title_inflation id=\"mwVg\">[3]\n"}}'> ↑ Schumpeter (24 June 2010), "Too many chiefs" , The Economist ↑ Adrian Furnham (14 May 1993), "Job title inflation hits the roof", Financia 13 1 2 Graham Snowdon (2 March 2012), "The rise of the meaningless job title" , The Guardian ↑ "Inflated Job Titles: Helpful or Hot Air?
