Time for a change? Try a career in the not-for-profit sector - Getting a Job, Career Planning - The Independent
Time for a change? Try a career in the not-for-profit sector - Getting a Job, Career Planning - The Independent: "ontrary to popular opinion, the charity sector is not full of 'soft and fluffy do-gooders', according to Jackie Weston-Davies, HR manager at the Royal National Institute for the Blind. 'In some ways the work we do here is more challenging than the private sector. That's certainly the case in terms of our contractual work, when we have to compete against commercial and public sector contracts,' she says. Add to this the fact that charities are becoming more business-focused, and you can see why they need top talent as much as any other employer."
