The 80,000 Hours Podcast<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The 80,000 Hours Podcast features unusually in-depth conversations about the world\u2019s most pressing problems and how you can use your career to solve them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

80,000 Hours started in 2011, when Prof. Will MacAskill and Ben Todd were studying at Oxford and trying to figure out what to do with their own careers. It seemed clear that some careers have far more impact than others, but they couldn\u2019t find any good advice on which paths would be most effective. So they started doing their own research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Will and Ben presented their early ideas on these questions in a lecture in February 2011. The lecture caused several people in the audience to completely change what they were planning to do with their lives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Podcast is currently tailored to graduates age 20-35 who want to ambitiously focus on social impact, though much of our advice is useful to a broader audience.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
