Matt will give a brief overview of 80,000 Hours' four-step career planning process and then invite discussion on how it might apply to a variety of different skill sets and career stages.
Matt is an Advisor at 80,000 Hours. He started with 80,000 Hours after three years of litigating for a top global law firm. Before that, he led Harvard Law School’s Effective Altruism student group. He continues to support EA groups at law schools and EA community building in the legal field more broadly. He holds a BA from Northeastern Illinois University and a JD from Harvard.
