Landing a job at a non-profit is quite different from landing one at a for-profit.
Willy Frazen was generous enough to let me guest-post on his blog, One Day One Job, a great resource for job seekers right out of college. The post gives 5 pieces of advice about how to land a job at a non-profit, based on my experience.
Willy was frustrated with the job search process when he graduated, so he created One Day One Job to help other job seekers find organizations where they would be a great fit and could feel great about supporting.
On weekends, One Day One Job covers non-profit jobs exclusively, so you want to be sure to check it out.
Willy also created One Day One Internship, which can help you find a successful internship placement.
