Have you been thinking about a career change? Does the nonprofit sector sound like it might be for you?

In Make the Jump: Reinvent Your Career in the Nonprofit Sector, you'll learn what nonprofit executive search leader Marcia Ballinger has figured out after working with hundreds of nonprofit organizations and counseling thousands of executives.

If you:

• Are feeling like you want to “give back”.
• Would like to work for an organization that is “mission driven”.
• Want to do work that benefits society.
• Seek to feel more inspired and fulfilled by your contributions.

Then this audiobook is for you!

The goal of Make the Jump: Reinvent Your Career in the Nonprofit Sector is two-fold:

• First, you’ll get an overview of the nonprofit sector, along with a reality check so you can discern if making the jump is right for you.
• Next, you’ll get step by step guidance on how to secure a role at a nonprofit. Resumes, cover letters, interviews, and networking tips are included. You’ll also learn about a number of ways that you can “get into a nonprofit” that don’t include securing a full-time permanent job.

This book contains no-nonsense advice intended for people who want the straight scoop about what it takes to get into the nonprofit sector and be successful once you arrive.

Specific topics include:

• Why a nonprofit?
• Stories of folks who “made the jump”.
• What nonprofits want.

• Searching for nonprofit roles (resumes, recruiters, and rallying your network).
• Nailing the nonprofit interview.
• Derailers.
• Getting hired.
• Sticking the landing.
• Ten ways to make the jump.
