And if there’s a new post (which I’d encourage!), I have a few opinions on things to maybe improve (though I think the current version is really good, this is not a complaint)
Also commenting to see if there are plans to create a new “Who wants to be hired?” thread—as I think it could be very beneficial to job-seekers like me!
I don’t know of any immediate plans, maybe we can make a post but not pin it?
Of the 46 people that replied to me from this thread, 4 found something, but —one was a short-term collaboration —one gives a 70% chance they would have been contacted anyway, he had already met the employer at a conference —one was both a short-term collaboration, and they don’t think they were contacted because of this thread —one was a three-month contract
And 10 people found an EA job through other means: - One from an org they were volunteering at —One from posting in an EA Facebook group —One after applying to various org following an 80k 1-1 advice session
I think most of the others were the results of directly applying to things, so I would recommend the approach in When in doubt, apply .
