4 weeks → Jan 4 - 31
In each of these four weeks you will:
- Complete two sections from the 80,000 Hours Career Plan Worksheet. This will take about 3 hours to complete. You can do this whenever you like, or you can do it in one of our virtual co-working sessions.
- Receive comments on your worksheet from an EA career mentor. This will include suggested resources for you to check out.
- Have a group discussion with two other students in the program to discuss your career planning with each other.
- Write a short reflection on the week and send this to your EA career mentor along with any questions that would be useful to discuss with them. You will discuss these questions with your EA career mentor in a 60min 1-1 call after you last group discussion.
