Thank you for the advice... I hope those of us who are job-seekers will file it in the “no-brainer” category. You all never cease to amaze me with your wealth of information. I was wondering if you have ever considered doing a seminar or workshop for people interesting in working in the non-profit industry. Tips? Pointers? Feedback? Perhaps connecting the people who want to enter the field with the people who are looking for new hires? People helping people. You do it best, you know.
