Higher Education

  • Inside Higher Ed Not just faculty positions: look for possibilities under Administrative Jobs and Jobs Outside Higher Education.

Nonprofit, Professional, and Academic Associations:

  • Nonprofit Jobs Search for jobs at the National Council of Nonprofits site. 
  • Work for Good.org Starting place for searching for nonprofit positions by location, type of job, salary, etc.
  • PublicServiceCareers.org Public sector job postings; site is sponsored by the professional associations Association for Public Policy Analysis and Management (APPAM), American Society for Public Administration (ASPA), and National Association of Schools of Public Affairs and Administration (NASPAA).
  • Foundation List  Site for posting and searching for nonprofit job opportunities. 
  • Keep in mind that almost all professional associations have websites, and most provide some resources for job seekers. Many professional organizations, such as the American Society for Indexing, the American Copy Editors Society, and the American Society of Journalists and Authors, offer some open online resources, but reserve job postings for members-only access.
