A career doesn’t always follow the path we imagined. Sometimes we’re ready for something new. Other times, we’re simply trying to understand what comes next.

Wherever you find yourself, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

Join Women of Color in Fundraising and Philanthropy (WOC), in partnership with Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) for an evening that goes beyond the traditional career fair. Meet people who understand the challenges of building a meaningful career and who are willing to share what they’ve learned along the way.

Connect with executive search professionals, career coaches, and nonprofit leaders. Bring your questions, explore possibilities you may not have considered, and take advantage of practical guidance that can help you prepare for your next step.

Whether you’re considering a career change, hoping to grow where you are, or looking to connect with talented professionals for your organization, there's something here for you.

This year’s Career Fair will include:

• Career Coaching - Talk through your goals and get perspective on what might come next.

• Resume Reviews - Receive feedback to help you tell your professional story.

• Connect with Search Firms - Meet professionals who understand the nonprofit hiring landscape.

• Beauty & Professional Style Coaching - Get personalized tips on beauty and professional presentation to help you feel comfortable and confident showing up as yourself.

• Panel Discussion - Hear perspectives on navigating career decisions and professional growth.

• Executive Search Initiative Town Hall - Join a conversation about executive search and the experiences shaping leadership opportunities.

• Networking - Make connections with people who understand your work and may help you see a new possibility.
