RP is a fully remote organization and very dedicated to being flexible to a large range of possible researcher and life priorities. We can legally hire from most places that candidates are likely to be from.
But my understanding is that hiring people internationally is tricky to very tricky. Can you double-check with your operations team that this is still the case?
It’s definitely the case that we can hire people in most countries (though some countries have additional considerations we have to account for, like whether the person has working hours that will overlap with their manager, some financial / logistical constraints, etc), and we are happy to review any candidate’s specific questions about their particular location on a case by case basis if folks want to reach out to info@rethinkpriorities.org. For reference, we currently have staff in the US, Canada, Mexico, Spain, UK, Switzerland, Germany, and New Zealand.
