Unless I misread the laws regarding this, in CA at least you still have to earn ~$40/hr or more (it varies and last I read it was lowered a few $s) or more to be considered exempt, regardless of your job title
Actually, it doesn't matter how much you make per hour, the deciding factor between exempt and non-exempt is how many (if any) people you SUPERVISE. No supervision of others, then non-exempt. Now you and the employer may agree to some other definition, but that is between you and them. At my previous $DAY_JOB, a technicion who was classified as "exempt" took $EMPLOYER to court over back pay, overtime, lunch breaks, et al and WON. (He had no direct reports...)
