We know planning your career can be hard, especially if you’re looking to have a large social impact. That’s why we offer career workshopping programs to help guide you through our process for pursuing a high-impact career.
When you start to take part in our Career Programming, you will be given an EA career mentor, who will stay with you throughout the process. Your mentor will have one-on-one calls with you to help you navigate through exploring career options and making decisions.
