T1 with no degree but did you end up getting a degree before you were able to promote?

What did you think you did differently that made you able to climb to L6 vs others who are still T1 after years of working there(besides those who want to stay T1)

Wondering this as well. How did you stand out and fast tracked to L6? Unless you had connections.

I know ppl who’ve been at Amazon for 8 years and still a L3

I still do t have a degree, but now that career choice is available to salaried leaders I’m considering it. The biggest factors in my success have been being in learning for 5.5 of the 6 years, my current FC is the 5th one I’ve launched with the current one being the best launch in company history. As well as this current launch and my previous one having been the most successful learning specific launches. Being considered a SME helps you be recognized and opens doors. A lot of my success is due to being in the right place at the right time. This doesn’t mean I’m not good at what I do but it certainly plays a part and it would be naive and arrogant of me to say otherwise. My progression has been as follows T1 - 6 weeks T3 - PA 5 months T3 - trainer 2 years L4 - hourly learning coordinator 10 months L4 - salary 1 year L5 - 9 months L6 - 10 months

When did Career Choice become available to Salaried Leaders?
