Common Nonprofit Career Search Questions with Meg Busse

In this episode, Meg Busse answers some common questions about
finding a nonprofit job.  Some of the questions we ask
include:

"I hate networking but I hear it’s essential to get a nonprofit
job. Where should I start?”
“What are the top skills that nonprofits seek?”
“What's the best way for me to network with nonprofit
professionals?” “How can I get an employer to see my value if I
don't have a lot of work experience?”
“Should I follow up to see the status of my job application if I
haven't heard back?”
“I'm thinking about starting my own nonprofit. Any
suggestions?”
“Where are all the jobs?!?”

Jung Fitzpatrick interviews Meg to get some answers to ten of the
most common questions we hear from folks who are looking for a
nonprofit job these days. And while listening to this podcast will
not offer up any golden tickets to finding your ideal job,
hopefully you’ll hear at least one new tip that will help you in
your search. Or perhaps you’ll listen and get confirmation that
you’re doing everything right. Sometimes that reassurance is as
much needed in the job search as more advice.
