Nonprofit Career Round-Up: 4/27/2011

Slowly but surely, we are heading towards May.  Will all the "April Showers" we have gotten lead to "May Flowers?"  I guess we'll have to wait and see.  It's sort of hard to believe that we will only be a month away from potential summer weather in a week, but it's the truth.  Anyway, here are today's links...

• 'Do You Have a System for Grants in Place?'-Thought I would give you all some more reading on grants today.  This is a particularly fascinating article from Pamela Grow, a nonprofit marketing expert and career coach.
• 'Job Interview Success: Examples are the Key'-This blog post from Alison Doyle gives some sage advice about job interviews: provide examples!  In other words, prove to the employer that you are who you say you are.  Ms. Doyle suggests, among other things, to have anecdotes prepared for your interview.
