Assemblywoman Laurie Davies recently toured our Working Wardrobes Career Success Center. Despite her prior familiarity with the organization, she was amazed by how much more she learned during her visit. Since 1990, Working Wardrobes has reached over 125,000 individuals preparing for their journeys to achieving gainful employment. Because it's in the name, it is easy to think that the organization only provides professional clothing to prepare people for interviews, but that is only ONE way they help. We provide individualized employment plans, one-on-one coaching, assessments, upskilling workshops and certification programs, resume updates and mock interviews, and a slew of resources to connect community members who are unemployed and underemployed to over 185 other agencies providing unique services to our community. --- Assemblywoman Laurie Davies represents the 74th Assembly District, which includes the communities of southern Orange County, including Dana Point, Laguna Niguel, San Clemente, and San Juan Capistrano plus the communities of northern San Diego County, including Camp Pendleton, Oceanside and Vista. #workingwardrobes #orangecounty #southerncalifornia #nonprofitorganization #ocnonprofit #nonprofit

Volunteer coordinators…do you do volunteer exit interviews? If you don’t, you should! Unlike employment exit interviews, when a person may not give their honest feedback for many reasons, a volunteer is more likely to share their thoughts because a last paycheck, co-worker friendship, professional recommendation and industry reputation are not on the line. So why don’t all non-profits ask? Are they afraid to know the truth or do they simply not have a desire to actually change anything if they had the information? Back story: I recently ended a volunteer relationship where I contributed 5-10 hours per month. No questions were asked when I sent an email communicating the end of my service. #volunteer #volunteering #volunteers #exitinterviews #nonprofit #nonprofits #nonprofitlife #nonprofitorganization

The S.T.A.R Method is a great way to take that preparedness to the next level. It is a tool used to craft concise and complete responses to interview questions. Once developed, you can practice answering commonly asked questions using this formula during a mock interview or self-recording. Situation: Describe the situation you were involved in Task: What was the task you were responsible for? Action: What action did you take to address the situation? Result: What was the outcome of your actions? #nonprofitorganization #ocnonprofit #nonprofit #community #volunteer #employment #jobs #careers #workforcedevelopment #workingwardrobes

Fundraising Consultant | Helping small non-profits grow their revenue through Fractional Fundraising and hands-on support
I realized that I share about my business, but I don’t often share about the actual work that I do with my clients (and the key word is WITH. The most successful client relationships are collaborative). This is one project I’ve been working on with Business in the Streets: capturing and sharing stories of participants and alumni (all inspiring young entrepreneurs!). So proud of what we’ve done together and excited for what’s to come! #clients #fundraising #consulting #smallbusiness #entrepreneurs #success #storytelling #nonprofits #charities
At the end of our last cohort, we met with a few alumni to learn more about their stories; who they were before coming to BITS and who they hope to be after. One of the people we were really lucky to speak with was Kedesha Kondell, founder of Kondell Business Services and Adult Development and Management Center. Her business is run as a social enterprise that sells resumes and cover letters, then uses the profits to offer free jobs skills training to new immigrants or individuals with disabilities. She started her business after observing a need in her community and realizing that she could use her background and expertise to address that need. But when she started feeling overwhelmed, she came to us for help. And we're so glad she did! We've seen her come through both YCEO and Boot Camp and we can't wait to see where she takes her business next. Listen to a small clip of our conversation below. #SmallBusinessSupport #NonProfit

Let’s find out! For each participant who successfully solves the puzzle, we’ll donate $5 (up to $1,000) to Year Up, a non-profit that shares our mission to make hiring more fair for job seekers of all backgrounds. 🫶 Plus, there are other gifts up for grabs – and even if you don’t win the game, you’ll get something just for playing (and tirelessly TA-ing).

As someone who has had a career working in purpose driven organisations across a range of areas, it's like I never left. In fact, it's just like working in the teams of many organisations at once and in various parts of the country. Thank you to everyone I've come into contact with during the month as well as those attending interviews and starting new roles. It's such an exciting time and a pleasure to be part of your journey. #jobswithpurpose #charityjobs #nonprofitjobs

Share in the comments how your organization approaches the interview process. 💬 Common interview methods don’t always highlight the right person for the job; they highlight the best and most enthusiastic storyteller, and storytelling isn’t always the job employers are looking to fill. This article highlights alternative interview methods to help find the best person for the job and create a more equitable interview process. Check out the latest article from CERIC - CareerWise for details! 🔽 https://okt.to/I9WAci #article #blogs #leadership #charity #nonprofit #philanthropy #charities #nonprofits #notforprofit #blog #blogging #nonprofitwork #nonprofitlife #network #association #nonprofitorganization #community #interview #equity #job #IDEA
