Nonprofit Hiring Trends and Working for a Nonprofit  

Recently I wrote two blog articles about Hiring and Nonprofits.  Idealist.org is reprinting both articles in their Nonprofit Career Month blog. Nonprofit Career Month promotes career opportunities in the nonprofit sector. It is powered by Idealist.org and funded by the Kellogg Action Lab.  Conicidentally, I am also a member of the Kellog Action Lab College of Consultants.

The first article has already been posted at Nonprofit Career Month Blog and you can read Hiring (That's Right - Hiring) in the Nonprofit Sector here.

The next article will be published at Nonrpofit Career Month during the next month, but you can read it now on my blog:

So You Want to Work for a Nonprofit?

I know this continues to be a tough time for all nonprofits and I hope all of you are coping well.  If I can be of assistance, please give me a call.

Sincerely,

Marion
