Introduction Howdy! We in ALEC 646, Institutions Serving Agriculture in Developing Nations, are proud to share this catalogue with you. Our goal is that fellow graduate students interested in international agricultural development will use this book as a starting point in their job search. There are over 200 organizations represented here, and any one may be exactly where you belong. Institutions are organized alphabetically in the main section. In order to increase efficiency, we have provided three indexes to aid in narrowing down which organizations are relevant to you. The first classifies the entries according to type of organization, the second is categorized by agricultural areas of interest, and the last index lists by geographic area of interest. Later in this catalogue, we will clarify the types of organizations, agricultural areas of interest, and geographic locations we have chosen. This catalogue is not intended to be the only resource used in finding employment. Its purpose is to expose graduate students to the wide variety of institutions working in agricultural development throughout the world. Once you have found organizations that inspire you, it is your responsibility to take the next steps. Based on the advice of various experts, we have also included some tips for being hired. We hope you enjoy! Sincerely, Laura Brainard Boone Clemmons Jolene Kollman Calie Jarvis Alicia Macmanus Tegan Walker Joanna Wilde

Tricks and Tips to Getting Hired Graduate students constructed this manual as part of a semester-long class assignment. In that course, students met with individuals who had worked in international development to learn about their experiences. Several students also had the opportunity to go to Washington, D.C. to meet with development professional to learn more about the industry and gain a better understanding of what employers are looking for in future employees. In order to see common themes, the class asked similar questions to each of the individuals that were met with. As the semester progressed, the class began to see definite patterns form in their responses; those themes were reiterated during the D.C. trip. The following are some of the questions asked and answers received. What skills and abilities do you look for in a competitive applicant? •

Soft Skills o Strong written and oral communication o Interpersonal skills o Familiarity of working in an office setting o Leadership o Self-motivated: Ability to work independently o Team player: Can work well with others

Development Specific Skills o Foreign language competency  French, Portuguese, Spanish, Swahili o Previous international work experience  Demonstrates interest in international affairs o Willingness to go to the field o Program management experience o Financial management, including fundraising or grant writing o Monitoring and evaluation o Advanced degree

How can a student gain the experience they need? • • • • •

Volunteering o U.S. Peace Corps: mentioned in almost every meeting we had Apprenticing with an organization Internships: domestic or international Fellowships Flexibility: Be willing to take the opportunities that do come along. Be modest and reduce expectation in order to get your foot in the door.

What to do if you have the skills, but cannot find a job? •

• •

Networking! It’s not what you know, but who you know. o This may mean you need to visit or move to where the jobs are. o Make business cards and have them with you at all times. Be ready to hand them out. o Follow up with people – a kind email can go a long way! o Send a “thank you” email if they met with you or helped you in any way. o Send a “nice to meet you” email to people you have just met. Meet people by going to events such as social gatherings, job fairs, or conferences. o You never know who you will meet that could connect you to your next job. o Interacting with people in international development will help you become familiar with industry lingo. o It will also give you the opportunity to demonstrate knowledge and interest in the industry. Arrange “coffee chats” with people to get to know them better and to allow them to get to know you. Be prepared when interacting with people. o Know what you want to do and be able to articulate it. o Before speaking with an organization, do your research - know what the organization is about and why you want to work with them. o When demonstrating knowledge of the industry, remember to be humble. You do not want to come across as a know-it-all.

Job Search Websites When searching for open positions in international development, job seekers can go directly to the website of an organization in which they are interested in working or use a job search website. To allow them to reach a large number of potential candidates, government agencies, NGOs, contractors, and multilateral organizations will often post a position on multiple search sites in addition to their own institution’s website. Job search websites allow you to easily search employment opportunities of numerous organizations at once, narrowing your search by specific job title, keyword, or geographic location. Some job search sites also allow you to signup to receive email updates when jobs that match your profile are posted. There are a large number of employment search websites that exist, but only a few cater to the development industry. Below are a few job search websites that are more geared towards development. The list is not meant to be all inclusive, but can help you get started in the job search process: •
