I think the partition of Junior vs Senior won't fully capture the decision making process on who goes or stays. While only time and effort will change your skill level, there are other traits that contribute that you might be able to change: - Potential: How fast has this person picked up since they were hired? - Intelligence: Related, but natural smarts is still a plus. - Personality: How much are you a fit for the team? - Reliability: Whether a manager know they can give work to you and it will get done. - Work Ethic: Available when they should be and make the most of their time. - Communication: Whether a person can present complex concepts in a coherent manner. Essentially, you want to make yourself so good at the things you can do that whoever is making the decision has a really hard time letting you go.
