A few things to know.
Coverage. reviewed sources, including editions with no qualifying record. January 1 is the target start; indexed records now begin January 6. The early newsletter includes venture launches, which are labelled separately from job changes. The first daily movement post has not been established. No month is certified complete.
Evidence. “Reported” means the move appears in its linked source; it has not been independently confirmed with the employer. No full-post copies, profile photos or comments are republished.
Dates and tags. Dates use the publisher’s stated day where available, otherwise newsletter delivery dates or an inference from LinkedIn activity IDs. Each source gives its date basis. Neither a report nor a venture launch establishes an employment start date. Industry, function and company-type tags are editorial interpretations and may need correction.
Updates. The index is maintained through public-source checks. Newest source reviewed: . Updates depend on accessible source material. RSS and the public LinkedIn profile support discovery; blocked requests and older posts still require review.
