Are you looking for a job at a nonprofit or mission-based organization? Let our decades of experience running searches, interviewing candidates, and working with nonprofits across the country benefit your search!

We know searching for the right job isn’t easy and we believe our advice, support, and ideas can help give your search a boost to help you land your next job.

Rooted Edge Consulting is offering a free 20 to 30 minute career coaching calls with Sarah Bennett, our owner and founder, to hear more about what you are looking for and use that time for whatever is most helpful for you. After that, if we decide to work together we offer coaching calls and support with Sarah at a sliding scale of $50 to $125/ hour (you tell us what you can afford) and this work together can cover the following -- and more, depending on your needs:

• Helping you take a step back and figure out what type of work you want to do, what your best strengths are, and help you hone in on the type of positions to pursue.

• Refining your resume

• Feedback and edits on a cover letter and application questions

• Strategizing around your search, which could include: types of organizations to look at, ideas for contacts to talk to, where to focus your time, how tap into your networks, making introductions where possible to help expand your network.

• Tips, advice, and practice (if helpful) interviewing, informational interviews, navigating the interview process

• Acting as a listening ear and supporter!

Some of our career coaching clients work with us for a handful of calls – or even just the first 20 minute free option. Others work with us for their entire search. It's really up to you!

Please note: We bill for hours spent prep/ research/ edits to materials -- which helps make our coaching as impactful as possible -- in addition to time on coaching calls.

Going forward, your name will be added to our network of candidates and we will keep you in mind for positions our clients are filling and roles we hear about from the nonprofits we are connected with. We'd love to hear from you if you could benefit from this type of support!

Note to organizations: We have also partnered with mission-driven organizations which are in the unfortunate position of making lay-offs or other types of staff departures. Setting up coaching partnership with Rooted Edge can be a thoughtful and practical addition to an exit package, which will not only show caring and support during a tough time, but also helping them find their next role in a strategic and more timely manner. If you are interested in setting up career coaching support for departing staff, please reach out and we can explore a partnership.

If you are an individual or organization interested in potentially working together, please email us at team@rootededgeconsulting.com or fill out the interest form on our contact page. We'd love to hear from you!

I’m so glad I reached out to Sarah for her candidate coaching support during a recent job search process. Sarah helped me clarify what I was looking for in a new role, did background research with her personal connections about my prospects, prepared me for two final-round interviews, and acted as a supportive sounding board as I negotiated an offer of employment. I’m very excited about the role I was able to secure with her support, and highly recommend Sarah as a coach to candidates at any stage in their career!
