Careers In Nonprofits understands the unique operational challenges of nonprofit organizations and associations. Budget constraints are an ever-present reality, and additional expenditures may require committee or board approval. You may assume that you can’t afford to work with Careers In Nonprofits on your permanent search, when the truth is that you can’t afford not to! Here’s why:

Time and Energy. Conducting a search takes valuable time and energy. If your organization is conducting a search on its own, that is time and energy diverted from your staff’s primary duties. And in most cases, the persons charged with the search are not experts in staffing. By partnering with us to conduct your search, you put the staffing experts to work on your behalf and keep your staff focused on their areas of expertise. You get more value from the salaries you are already paying.

Search Expenses. In-house searches are not free. In addition to the costly efforts of staff time and energy, there are charges for posting your vacancy announcement and access to resume databases online. We handles these search expenses at no additional cost.

It Pays For Itself. No longer are staffing services a luxury only wealthy corporations can afford. We offer affordable rates so that our services are accessible even to small nonprofits and associations. In fact, the fee for permanent searches often pays for itself when you consider the amount of time the position has been—or will be—vacant. In most cases, the funds that accrue in the interim period will more than cover the fee for our services.

Careers In Nonprofits offers a contingency fee structure, so there is no cost to you until and unless you hire one of our candidates. And, we offer a generous guarantee period for permanent staff. That's a value-added proposition with no risk!

"Working with Careers In Nonprofits has been wonderful during the last couple of months. I've worked with many recruiters, and Gail Viraldo really distinguished herself with the level of service she provided.
We are thrilled with the candidate that she brought to us (who accepted our offer) and I'm hopeful that she'll be able to assist me with a couple of other tough to fill positions."

"I was delighted to find Careers In Nonprofits . . . finally, a staffing firm that specializes in nonprofits! Our experience working with them has been deeply satisfying. They not only met a very quick, emergency request for our organization, but they provided a most capable professional with solid experience and a positive attitude, someone who immediately fit in with the culture of our fast-paced department. We felt comfortable trusting the Careers temp employee to manage our year-end donations and to interact with and respond to our donors. This employee used good judgment and was an asset, allowing us to maintain the momentum of the department, even in a serious transitional period. I applaud Careers In Nonprofits on the level of customer service they provide and encourage any nonprofits to consider placing an order with them. This firm is a terrific addition to metropolitan Chicago!"
