A Job Title That's Meant To Impress
Companies are known to come up with creative job titles so that they can create a different image for an age-old role. A recent ad by a reputed bank caught my eye. The position that was advertised was “First Impression Officer”. After some research I found out that this position is better known as Receptionist. Why should they complicate such a simple thing? Are they bored of using the term receptionist?

Prabhu,
You hit the nail on its head. This is definitely a morale booster.

umm,
its still better then getting a visiting card which proclaims the bearer to be in charge of 'Corporate Executions', ADM has a story about that - seems people is his co used to decide their own designations and have the boss sign it off, so someone got this for himself..
very neat methinks

that's dangerous. maybe he wanted to call himself CEO (corporate executions officer)

maybe they read Blink and got convinced that meeting the receptionist really does set the ground for the customer's potential business with the bank!
