Can you get a promotion after 1-2 months working?

I started my new job the week before the holidays started, they’ve been waiting for me since October though... but i couldn’t start because my school didn’t verify my credentials for the longest time.

Anyhow... my current immediate supervisor will be leaving in October, and the person that was her back up will be taking her position. She told me that the idea is for me to take his position in that case.... does that mean that I will get promoted also? Or will that mean that I will only have his current responsabilities? I’m afraid to ask since I have no experience in this field (albeit I’m overqualified due to my previous experience in other field, which is the reason they hired me)....

I’m afraid to ask because it will be so soon, this “promotion” will take place before my probation is due... this is a very well respected organization, I didn’t even negotiate my salary since I didn’t want to lose this opportunity. But at the same time, I feel it would be unfair to become the leader in my department but be remunerated the same...
