LINKEDIN: As part of our mission to empower and connect progressive Latino organizers, the New Latino Movement regularly posts job notices for campaign, advocacy, congressional and other government and public service jobs. We invite you to view and also post job notices that may be of interest to our national network. See the latest postings in our LinkedIn Group Job Board.

CONEXIONES: The New Latino Movement is also an active participant in Conexiones, a private Google group of over 300 members that serves as a jobs list for Latino Democrats interested in progressive campaign, Hill, Administration and advocacy jobs. To join this job list and view/share jobs, please go to http://groups.google.com/group/demochambas.

NLM TALENT BANK: If you are a Latino Democrat seeking a progressive job, please email your resume to newlatinomovement@gmail.com and click here to join our NLM Resume Bank. Through various political groups our leadership team is involved with, we are sometimes asked to share good resumes of qualified applicants for key positions and we’ll work to help make sure our NLM members’ resumes are getting into good hands. If you land a job through Conexiones or NLM’s Talent Bank, please let us know and share your success story!

ADDITIONAL RESOURCES: Following is a List of Job Search and Networking Development Web Sites & Listservs for Political, Government, Non-Profit & Communications Professionals (Created by the Generation Obama Career Networking Development Group with some NLM updates.) IMPORTANT NOTE: Many of these resources have accounts of LinkedIn, Facebook & Twitter too! Keep your eyes open for other ways to get information from them.
