80,000 Hours

80,000 Hours is a London-based nonprofit organisation that conducts research on which careers have the largest positive social impact and provides career advice based on that research. The organisation's name refers to the typical amount of time someone spends working over a lifetime.

The book 80,000 Hours by Benjamin Todd features advice based on the philosophy of effective altruism plus personal fulfillment. The organisation has also hosted a podcast since 2017, featuring speakers from a variety of careers and perspectives on such philosophy, as well as a YouTube channel. Articles in the vein of the book and podcast have been posted regularly on the 80,000 Hours website since its founding, which also provides advice through one-on-one sessions.
