Curious about what’s really happening in the development job market?
Join Women In Development for a 30-minute networking reception followed by a dynamic panel of top recruiters who work exclusively with fundraising and philanthropy professionals. We’ll break down where the jobs are growing (and where they’re not), the skills that matter at every career stage, salary pressures, relocation/hybrid work trends, and what truly sets strong candidates apart. You’ll also walk away with concrete tips for negotiating, standing out as a candidate, and building meaningful recruiter relationships. If you want the real story behind today’s job landscape and how to strategically position yourself, this is the event to attend.
