Nonprofit Jobs

Interesting to note that the nonprofit job sector grew last year in the middle of this recession. We are sure the reasons cited in the John Hopkins University study for this growth are valid but it left us wondering how much of that growth is brought on by for-profit employees thinking nonprofits offer better job security than their previous employment.  Nothing like a job loss to prompt consideration of doing good rather than staying in the for profit sector. Even though the wages are likely to be lower, a job helping others or society can soothe the sting of no longer making what you used to make. It means high quality talent for but the question remains will that talent deliver improved results. What do you think?
