I can message you more if you want - but generally I think doing 1-1′s with new-er EA’s (or people who wouldn’t necessarily even call themselves an EA—like people in the intro. fellowship generally) requires extra transparency and communication around expectation setting and goals.
This generally just for us looked like making it clear in the email / form what 1-1′s are, what the purpose of them is, what it isn’t (ex. it isn’t making a career connection to simply get them to leave their job for an EA aligned one), etc. And then making it clear to the people doing the 1-1 some norms around setting expectations, approaching EA as an open question, and not assuming X person is interested doing the most effective things or taking Y action.
