Looking for a Job in International Development?

A few job boards you can follow (set up RSS or email feeds on topics/countries of interest):

http://reliefweb.int/jobs

http://www.unjobs.org/

www.developmentaid.org

www.devex.com

http://www.eldis.org/

http://www.devnetjobs.org/

Job boards are important. You should also be:

  • Networking
  • Linking with organizations you want to work for (yes, volunteer)
  • Continue building your CV with on-going professional training
  • Stand out form the crowd by publishing (many jobs require research and writing skills and this demonstrates you have those), never discount the importance of being able to write well.

**If you do not have any experience in international development, suggest you start with my advice on volunteer placements and internships (here)**
