I’d like to emphasise something you said as a side note but seems really important to me:
“if salary is blocking you...”
Or if anything else is blocking you—tell someone. The EA orgs are often unaware. At least one EA org explicitly asked me if I think salaries are preventing people from applying.
The EA orgs really need feedback on what is preventing people from applying, this is a blind spot for them and a pain point for the community, please be one of the people who share what is blocking you (even anonymously, or PM me, I’ll ask some follow up questions like “what salary would get you to apply?” or so, and then I’ll pass it on anonymously)
I endorse this direction for my domain (software)

There are a few responses about this on Twitter https://twitter.com/EAheadlines/status/1519401267914846212?s=20&t=ZaXRw_cNdLaS6KdiTw9teA
Thank you! This was valuable for me
