Do you have any advice for people like myself considering whether to go to you, 80k, or both for 1-1 career advice?
Do you have any advice for people like myself considering whether to go to you, 80k, or both for 1-1 career advice?
The best advice we can give on this currently is to simply apply to both!
Nice one! I've updated the status of your listing at AISafety.com/advisors :)
Need help planning your career? Probably Good’s 1-1 advising service is back! After refining our approach and expanding our capacity, we’re excited to once again offer personal advising sessions to help people figure out how to build careers that are good for them and for the world.
Our advising is open to people at all career stages who want to have a positive impact across a range of cause areas—whether you're early in your career, looking to make a transition, or facing uncertainty about your next steps. Some applicants come in with specific plans they want feedback on, while others are just beginning to explore what impactful careers could look like for them. Either way, we aim to provide useful guidance tailored to your situation.
Learn more about our advising program and apply here.Also, if you know someone who might benefit from an advising call, we’d really appreciate you passing this along. Looking forward to hearing from those interested. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
Finally, we wanted to say a big thank you to 80,000 Hours for their help! The input that they gave us, both now and earlier in the process, was instrumental in shaping what our advising program will look like, and we really appreciate their support.
Thank you for doing this — this is super helpful from a university organizer perspective.
One question: Will you be able to handle the capacity of all the participants (UChicago, for example, is around 13 per quarter, excluding summer) after a university intro fellowship?
Currently, yes! Over time, it will depend on how many people apply, but for now we'd encourage all your participants to apply, and we're already looking into scaling our advising.
Also, in cases like this, where you're an organizer interested in career advising for your group, please get in touch to discuss (with Rocky, at [email protected]). We'd be happy to figure out the best way to set this up, and are also about to launch new career-advising workshops that we can run for your group.
