Career Guidance – Development Sector

This is a short guidance session for anyone trying to understand how the development sector actually works beyond job titles and degrees. The focus is on realistic career understanding, not generic advice.

In this session, we can discuss:

1. Different roles within NGOs, CSR teams and foundations
2. Early-career decisions and common mistakes
3. How to approach internships, entry-level roles and sector transitions
4. Whether communication, research, M&E, or program roles may suit you

This session is based on practical experience working with development programs and teams. It is meant to help you gain direction and clarity, especially if you feel confused about next steps.
