| I'm an INFP. Graphic designer. Meh. It's OK. |

| I'm development director at a small non-profit. I love working someplace where everyone is devoted to the mission and there is minimal infighting. I'm mildly an introvert, and even so some of the public facing work I need to do can feel draining, but I love strategizing and figuring out how to connect with people. |

| Elementary music teacher. I don't do well with adults (tend to clam up if there's more than 1), but give me a room full of kids any day! |

This might be something I'm interested in. What's your background (educational/professional)? Thanks. |

I have an MSW. Many people in similar positions have an MPP, some an MPH. Depending on what you want to do or how far up you want to go, you may need a PhD. I've worked in both a non-profit/academic environment, as well as government. |
