Here is the advice I provided to get a national nonprofit job:
- Get involved in some national nonprofit committees and attend national conferences to get your name out there and build your reputation. Network, network, network.
- Revise your resume to target the national nonprofit that you would like to work for.
- Contact a national nonprofit search firm: (Commongood Careers, Nonprofit HR Solutions, Nonprofit Professionals Advisory Group, Dewey & Kaye) to see if they can find an ideal position for you or give you advice on how to get your ideal position.
- Get a graduate level certificate or degree in nonprofit management if you want to expand your nonprofit management skills.

As a current North Park student in Chicago, taking a few graduate certificate courses expands your network. Many of your fellow students will work or serve on boards at the various organizations and may have connections to the contacts you are looking for!
