@Voxoff,

What have your experiences and tasks been so far as a mid-level developer? What were you in charge of? Did you have a regular rapport with other departments, with clients, stakesholders? Did they talk to you directly when they "wanted things done"?

What are the sizes of the companies that you've worked in already? How big over all, how big were the teams you were on?

I'm surprised no one is asking these questions to see what existing experience you do have can contribute to this, because it is possible that this might be a natural extension of what you already do. It's company-size specific, but good to ask all the same.

In smaller companies, being a mid-level developer means occasionally having to make a call that directly impacts the bottom line and talking to the CEO and clients in a very matter-of-fact way. You wouldn't know that from just the title of a person however.
