I have priors like “getting a person with 10 more years of experience than anyone else on your team could be a really big deal, especially if nobody else like this applied”, but I don’t have skin in the game.
Would you maybe like to answer for any of the orgs you’re involved with?
I agree with your prior—but I would add that I think my chances of getting someone with 10 years more experience than anyone else on my team goes up if my first choice gives me $1m/year!
I’m happy to answer for One for the World that I would take the Earning to Give option and readvertise, unless for some reason I thought I had a uniquely good candidate. Happy for you to link this in your main post as well.
Also, to be clear, I 100% support your main point, which is that people should apply for jobs they think they would be good at. I also want to keep EtG as a serious EA pathway, though, as I think EA is going to need a lot more funding and/or ops funding to achieve what it wants to over time.
I see.
This is a question for orgs hiring, not for me.

At (roughly) what amount would you be undecided between the Earning to Give option and getting the first choice?
Thanks! I linked to this comment in the post
