I was accepted to a program that gives mid-to-seniors a trip to Cannes. The program will have some stuff at the festival I have to attend which is cool, but anyone familiar with Cannes know what I should keep an eye out for in terms of networking or anything cool?

Agree with all of the above. Spend hours in the basement - see everything. Go to all the awards, go to every panel you can (show up 30 mins early for the hot ones), ask a producer or hooked-up account lead for invites to yacht parties. Or (gasp) talk to people on the flight to Nice. The reps will find you. Keep it together at your client-attending parties, crash out at Gutter bar. Be nice to the staff and crew. And have fun!

Spend a ton of time in the basement reviewing the work. Attend as many live judging panels as you can. Seeing the presentations, questions and defenses of the work is invaluable.

Post on LinkedIn that you’re going and the kind of events you’re interested in. Use hashtags. Some reps are bound to invite you to some parties.

I’m an in-house designer. My company decided to offer social media marketing packages to our clients. Today they asked me to take full ownership of that outside social media marketing on top of my current job duties.

I expressed a need for a promotion or raise to compensate for the major increase in responsibility, a responsibility that is not currently in my description.

They pushed back.
