Corporate career changers, new college graduates, mothers re-entering the job market and others will discover a great diversity of opportunities, ranging from public relations, publications, finance, office management, through program departments, development offices and executive directorships. A section on the biggest nonprofit prospect of all is covered: the public sector. Earnings are looked at, at entry, mid-career and senior levels. Also included is an appendix of job information sources, such as hotline telephone numbers, associations, publications and special libraries.
