As UW-Madison students we have an awesome opportunity to use our careers to improve the lives of others. The average career lasts 80,000 hours, that’s a long time. If you could increase the impact of your career by just 1% it would make sense to spend 800 hours thinking about how to do that. And we think this 2 week program can increase your impact by much more, and in much less time. So let’s dive in.

Join us for our Conference and Careers Program where you'll develop a longterm career plan and actionable next steps to pursue a high-impact career and have the chance to network and resolves career uncertainties with industry professionals at EAGx Berkeley on the 2nd - 4th of December.

Who is this program for?

This program is about turning the ideas discussed in the Fellowship into action. You’d be a good fit for this program if:

• You’ve completed an Effective Altruism Fellowship
• You genuinely prioritise positive impact in your career
• You’re in search of a career which balances large positive impact and personal satisfaction
• You’re open to exploring novel career paths which may be 10 or 100x more impactful than your default path

Program Outcomes

Our goal is that participants walk away with:

• A clear long term career plan
• Actionable next steps to begin pursuing this plan
• Most career related uncertainties resolved after speaking to professionals at EAGx Berkeley

Program Summary

This program consists of two paths:

• The Conference Path: for those who are accepted and able to attend EAGx Berkeley on December 2nd - 4th
• The non-Conference Path: for those unable to attend EAGx Berkeley

We think the Conference Path is considerably more rewarding than the non-Conference path, and strongly consider you to attend EAGx Berekely. (There should be a big group of EA UW folks going, so we will help coordinate flights, hotels, and other logistics. Funding is also avaliable for most attendees.)
