What the work involves
Organize a team's work, allocate resources, and support people responsible for delivery. Management differs from simply being the most experienced technical contributor; a posting should name the work and people managed.
Questions that define the job
Ask how priorities are set, what performance information is available, and which staffing decisions the manager can make.
Experience to bring
Prepare examples of delegating work, addressing an obstacle, and improving a team's process without losing accountability.
Where the role sits
Ask the employer to name the reporting line and the people or programs this position leads. A title can hide a difference between specialist work and management. Confirm which responsibilities you own, which are shared, and who reviews decisions affecting another team. An organization’s size changes the way work is divided; do not assume that a title carries identical authority at every institution.
Choosing an employer
Look at the mission and the department as well as the function. The same professional skill can support education, services, research, or another kind of institution. Ask what the team is trying to accomplish and what resources are available. Prepare examples that connect your experience to the stated assignment rather than treating a general interest in nonprofit work as a qualification for every opening.
