I have someone I know who is looking to switching jobs and careers. Let's say they are in a particular advocacy non-profit career. 🐦 They simply said their passion isn't like everyone else's. They compared themselves to a bird and just fly away. 🐦⬛ Can you help my friend out in explaining that not every day of a chosen career is a "passion-fest"? 🐦 Like, I LOVE my career but wouldn't say I am oozing with enthusiasm everyday. At the end of day, a job is a job. We all have bills to pay. Thoughts? #career #jobseekers

Friday thoughts: As I’m sitting here in sort of disbelief I’m back in this job market, I sit and think about an interview I recently had that gave me motivation. I interviewed with a COO who has been in his industry for 20 years at least and told me he’s envious of where I am. Now, as he said this *in my head* I’m like envious of my desperation and exhaustion? Then he explains how this is such an amazing time period for me because not only do I get to discover and rediscover myself and my career path I also get to choose where I end up. It’s not only about my experience I’ve gain over the years but my intentions on where I end up! This is my motivation because I have recently felt defeated. Then I remembered I am educated, smart, and have determination. There’s nothing or no one who can stop what’s for me and what will be for me! #Fridaymotivation #thoughts #laidoff #opentowork #newstart #newopportunities #openforopportunities #connections #nonprofit #outreach #communityengagement #openforwork

👋 To friends and colleagues in the #socialsector: sharing a resource for you and/or those in your network who are actively looking for their next role. Over the years I kept a list of #socialsector and #socialentrepreneurship job sites and search firms... now neatly in a spreadsheet! It is by no means exhaustive. I have shared this recently with a few folks and thought it might be helpful for your networks, too. 👇 Drop a comment if there is a site you like that you don't see on the list; I will keep it updated. #jobsearch #socialsector #nonprofit

My most popular post of 2023 was written the Saturday night before Christmas – a day before Christmas Eve. I wish I could say that it was my post about the revenue growth of an organization I worked for or the importance of authentic and transparent relationships with donors and partners. But it wasn’t. My most viewed post of 2023 was about my job search and the challenges of being part of a failed search. And it wasn’t even close. This post received three times the number of impressions of my fundraising-focused posts. Yet, there was something so much more telling than the number of impressions for the post. I received dozens of emails from people in our industry experiencing the same thing. Countless interviews, exercises completed, references checked, and the feeling that an offer was coming, only to receive the dreaded “we went with another candidate” or “we are restarting our search” email. These people wanted to comment but felt like they could not. The rejection still stung. They are still in the hiring process and don’t want a comment on a post like mine to harm their search. I get it. I have those feelings and concerns, too. I have trepidation when I post about my own job search. It is humbling. It makes me question my professional experience and successes.  I raised millions of dollars in my last role. I collaborated with colleagues across the organization and was a good team member. However, I will continue to be a voice for those struggling to find a role and for the challenges of this current job market.  I will post about fundraising and development strategies and remain a voice for those who fear the backlash. Talented and successful nonprofit professionals are ready to join your organization in 2024. If my most viewed post of 2023 tells me anything there are hundreds of them. I am one of them. #leadership #fundraising #opentowork #jobsearch #interviews #nonprofits #talentacquisition

🌟 LinkedIn #profiletip 9 of 10 to boost your #jobsearch The power of the #OpentoWork banner on your profile pic You won't be surprised to hear that this is probably my most obvious tip 😁 Sure, there might be some hesitation about using it, but let me try to settle those doubts! As a #recruitmentconsultant, I can tell you first hand that little green banner is a game-changer! It's a game-changer because: ✅ It's a Time-Saving Signal - It's like a clear signal for us recruiters, showing us that you're actively seeking opportunities ✅ It doubles the InMail Chances - According to LinkedIn, it can double your chances of receiving recruiter messages ✅ Control Over Visibility - Worried about your current workplace finding out that you're open to new job opportunities? That valid concern is easy to resolve You can choose the option to show that you're open to work ONLY to recruiters who use #LinkedInRecruiter outside of your workplace. I speak from experience in my own job hunt previously This little green banner was a game-changer for me 🙌 Why not give it a try? Let that #opentowork banner increase those job opportunities for you 🎉 --------------- If you are looking for a role in the #charitysector, then I'd love to hear from you. ⭐ Follow me and Charisma Charity Recruitment for tips, stories, and exciting #charity vacancies ⭐ #charityjobs #linkedinprofile #candidatesuccess
