Whose coming to DerbyCon?
There is a program called ATLAS in Amazon India where L2, L3 associates from non tech and other departments can become a software development engineer through an entrance test followed by 10 month training. Is it still open. Or is there any similar program through which I can become a SDE from L2 associate ?
Anyone want to go on a date today 32/F

It's pay to play, not earnest nominations
Then I’d say the selection committee needs to rethink it’s selections 🫠
It is an advertising publication making the list. I think they just put the famous people on there to make it interesting. They definitely don’t care about Adweek, if they’ve even heard of it.
True. And like one of the previous commenters said, it’s definitely pay to play.
I bet Doja Cat and Bill Hader can't wait to post about their inclusion on Linkedin.
Go Google “vanity gallery” and then ask yourself if a publication can function as a gallery.
I understand, I just feel like why do these publications even exist then? why is making in in adweek a make&break for a lot of careers. It’s not fair when it’s a popularity contest. Idk sorry just venting and having an overall early mid-life career crisis.
Instead of the cynical outlook on this kind of thing, I’ll offer some positivity. If getting on a list like this is a goal of yours, you can do it! All it takes is probably about one really solid year at your agency production-wise. Maybe even one great piece of work. And then yes, your agency nominating you, but it’s more than possible. Don’t have an early mid life crisis over it bc it’s not that deep and you could easily find yourself on one in the not so distant future.
