Hey, just pointing out that a few collections of “candidates looking for EA jobs” already exist, and there’s an advantage in having them centralized (so for example each org only needs to look in one collection, and each candidate needs to sign up only in one place)
What I am not saying:
I am not saying “dump this project because someone else is already doing it” (totally not! I really don’t believe in that argument).
I am saying:
If you didn’t consider that lists like this exist and you’re opening a new list by accident and you see no advantage to your one, then probably use one of the existing ones.
A lazy list-of-lists that I’m aware of (sorry for not including all links, I’m vaguely expecting that this list-of-lists exists somewhere and someone might link to it)
80k have a longtermist census (and my guess is that orgs use this a lot since in many ways 80k are a hiring center in EA)
HIP are setting up something that looks promising to me
There’s a post for “who wants to be hired”
The forum profile has an option for “seeking work”
CEA probably has some system that takes in the info from swapcard, where people sometimes mark “looking for work”
(maybe more, that’s what I have on the top of my mind)
I’ve just shared the survey. I think it would be useful if the survey included more information on who will use it, who the data will be available, who is running the survey, and the like.
Great initiative! People who’ve gotten laid off are also welcome to sign-up to our talent directory—we will try to get you placed at a high-impact organization. More in our post.
Also, happy to coordinate with you on this @nicolenohemi if you think it makes sense.

Thanks for taking the initiative on this!
