You’re looking for your first -- or next -- nonprofit job. How do you make your application stand out? How do you ace the interview?

This video features top tips from a Human Resources Director in a smaller, direct-service agency, a Chief Executive Officer of a safety net community health center, and a Chief Operation Officer of a local chapter of a national nonprofit. They share their best advice to help you begin or advance your nonprofit career.

You may feel like
  • you don’t know what applications are screened for, or how to ensure you get into the “interview pile”
  • you’re conflicted on whether to spend your time applying for a greater number of jobs, or putting a lot of work into just a few applications
  • you’re nervous about what to say and what to ask in an interview

In this video, hear directly from:

Jon Hile, Chief Operations Officer with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Greater Kansas City

















Patrick Sallee, Chief Executive Officer of Wyandotte Community Health Center/Turner House Children's Clinic

















June Valdivia, Human Resources Director with Community Action Agency of Greater Kansas City
