The International Development Careers List
by Alanna, $2.00/month
I talk - in detail - about careers in international development. Includes reader advice, candid discussions of job vacancies, and my uncensored opinions about just about everything. Publishes at least once a week.
New subscribers now receive the "Questions, Answers, and Extraneous Rants" ebook, containing the full newsletter archive to date.
If you want to pay via paypal instead of amazon, buy the ebook instead of subscribing, or have questions about the list, drop me an email: alanna.shaikhATgmail.com.
