Work for Good’s upgraded site is now live! We’ve worked hard to bring you a more streamlined, secure, and practical way to manage your account and apply for positions.
Find answers to our most common questions below, and reach out to hello@workforgood.org if you need any further support.
How do I create an account?
Go here and complete the form.
Why can’t I have multiple accounts with one email address?
Our system will only allow an email address to be associated with one account.
What do I do if I forgot my username and/or password?
Your username is your email address. If you know the email you used to create your account, you can follow these steps to login without a password:
If you no longer remember the email you used to create your account, and none of your email addresses work, you can either create a new account or reach out to us at hello@workforgood.org for assistance.
How does Work for Good keep my information confidential?
Your information will never be shared with the public. If you choose to make your profile public, only registered and approved employers and recruiters can view your information. Employers can search your profile only if you have set your visibility setting to “Allow employers to see your profile and attached resume.” You can adjust this setting in your account under “Your profile.”
I just accepted a new position and am no longer looking. Can I remove my profile from your site?
First – congratulations! Did you get a job you applied for on Work for Good? If so, we’d love to hear about it! Email us at hello@workforgood.org.
Now, to answer your question – we’d really urge you to keep your Work for Good account active. Currently, there is no way for employers to view your profile directly, meaning that you will only become visible to recruiters or hiring managers when you actively apply for a position.
If you are absolutely sure that you want all your information permanently deleted, please reach out to us to make the request. Please know that we will always verify the identity of any such request before we take action to delete an account.
How do I apply for a job?
Navigate to the job you wish to apply for and click the “Apply Now” button in the top right corner.
Clicking “Apply Now” will take you to the bottom of the page to fill out an application. This may start with an “Initial Screening” step, which will prompt you with one or more questions.
The “Application” step will be next, where you will find your user email entered into a field marked “Notification email address.” (Feel free to change this email address if you need.) Beneath this you’ll find fields for uploading documents (resume, cover letter, etc.) as well as an optional text box for typing out, or copy-and-pasting, your information. We recommend uploading your application materials in PDF form to ensure your formatting remains constant. You may upload as many documents as you need.
Click “Submit to employer” to complete your application. If you are not quite ready to apply, you can click “Save for later,” then return to your application by clicking “Your account” at the top of the screen, then “Manage applications & saved listings.”
What do I do if I click “Apply Now” and am routed to another website?
Many employers choose to use their own websites to accept applications. If you suspect that you’ve been routed incorrectly, please email hello@workforgood.org, and include a link to the job listing.
How do I upload a resume?
Since our May 2025 update, you will not have the option to attach a resume to your profile. Instead, you will be prompted to upload your resume each time you apply to a job. We have made this change to ensure that you can easily submit a resume tailored to the job listing at hand, which has significant advantages over attempting to maintain a “one-size-fits-all” resume.
How can I tell if my application has been submitted?
To view a record of applications you have submitted, navigate to “Your account” at the top of the screen and then click “Manage applications & saved listings.” This will take you to a page that lists all of the job listings you have saved. At the top of the list you will see filter options for showing you the jobs you have applied to, not yet applied to, or which have expired.
I have applied for a job, but have not heard from the employer. Will my applications be acknowledged?
After you have applied to a job, it is up to the employer to handle follow-up communications. Some employers contact every applicant, but others only contact applicants of interest.
Can I delete a job application I have submitted?
No. Job applications are sent to employers immediately so you are not able to delete a job application after it has been submitted.
Can I reapply to a job?
No. Once you’ve applied, the employer has received your information. Please make sure to double check that your information is correct before clicking “Submit to employer!”
I think a job listing may be post and/or fraudulent in nature. What do I do?
If you come across a job posting that you believe to be spam, fraudulent in nature, or otherwise suspicious, please email us immediately at hello@workforgood.org. Please put “Spam listing” in the subject line and include a link to the job posting in the body of the email.
What are job alerts?
When you set up a job alert, you’ll receive emails notifying you about new job opportunities that match your parameters, which may include keywords, location, workplace type, pay range, impact area, and more. You can create as many job alerts as you like, choose to receive them either daily or weekly, and change or cancel them at any time. Please note that you will receive a separate email for each saved job alert you create.
How do I create a job alert?
To create a job alert, log in to your account, navigate to “Your account,” and click “Manage your alerts & notifications.” You’ll be taken to a page that lists any existing job alerts. Click “Create new alert” at the top of the page on the right-hand side. Fill out the form that comes up next. You’ll need to fill out all three fields under “Subscription preferences.” Under “Search parameters,” you can indicate as many job preferences as you like. Finally, click “Save & return” to put the job alert into effect.
How do I delete or edit my job alerts?
To manage your job alerts, log in to your account, navigate to “Your account,” and click “Manage your alerts & notifications.” You’ll be taken to a page that lists all existing job alerts, where you can click “Edit alert” to change your parameters or “Remove alert” to delete a job alert altogether.
You may have noticed a new look. With our latest update (in June 2026), we’ve made the site more streamlined and user-friendly. If you have any issues, check our new, comprehensive user guides.
