Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Want to work on US emerging tech policy? Consider the Horizon Fellowship., published by ES on August 2, 2024 on The Effective Altruism Forum.
Applications are now open for the 2025 Horizon Fellowship cohort
What do you get?
The fellowship program will fund and facilitate placements for 1-2 years in full-time US policy roles at executive branch offices, Congressional offices, and think tanks in Washington, DC.
Horizon has placed fellows at the Department of Defense, White House, Department of Commerce, Senate committees, House personal offices and prominent think tanks. You can learn more about past fellows and their placements at
Meet our Fellows and
Fellow Accomplishments.
It also includes ten weeks of remote, part time policy-focused training, mentorship, and an access to an extended network of emerging tech policy professionals.
Who is it for?
Entry-level and mid-career roles
No prior policy experience is required (but is welcome)
Demonstrated interest in emerging technology
US citizens, green card holders, or students on OPT
Able to start a full time role in Washington DC by Aug 2025
Training is remote, so current undergraduate and graduate school students graduating by summer 2025 are eligible
Research shows that great candidates often disqualify themselves too quickly, especially if they are from underrepresented groups. If you are excited about the program but on the fence about whether you are eligible or qualified, we strongly encourage you to
apply. The application deadline is August 30th, 2024.
