A DEVEX CAREER BRIEFING
While the global development job market in the United States has taken a significant hit since the Trump administration’s freeze on foreign aid sent the sector reeling, options remain for purpose-driven job seekers. It may require self-reflection and new mindsets, but social impact professionals are far from helpless, despite the challenging recruitment landscape in the development sector.
To help development professionals make sense of the current U.S. job market and potential paths worth considering, Devex hosted a digital event featuring a panel of sector professionals and career experts who offered their insights and perspectives on how to turn the aid crisis into career opportunities.

- What effective networking actually is and how to incorporate it into your search.
- The social impact roles and skill sets that are expected to grow in demand.
- Key takeaways from our recent job board data analysis of the U.S. market.
- Answers to your specific questions, and much more.
