These reach the widest pool of candidates connected to the Jewish community.

CareerHub

• A shared board run by Leading Edge. CareerHub works differently from most of the other sites: once your organization’s profile is connected, it pulls your openings in automatically, so it’s a one-time setup rather than a task you repeat for every job. Setup instructions are at the end of this guide.
• Cost: Free
• Best for: Any role. What appears depends on your own careers page, so it works best if you maintain your careers page regularly.

GatherDC Classifieds

• GatherDC connects Jewish 20s and 30s across DC, Maryland, and Virginia. Its classifieds board carries both Jewish and secular roles.
• Cost: Free.
• Best for: Entry-level and early-career roles, and any position where reaching younger DMV candidates helps.

Hillel’s Jewish Career Network

• Networking and mentoring platform that also includes a job board. Hiring managers first create a profile on the platform. Audience spans wide range of industries & career stages.
• Cost: Free.
• Best for: Posting and sourcing across career stages, and connecting directly with Jewish candidates through the network.

JewishJobs.com

• Longest-running clearinghouse for Jewish communal jobs. Every posting is included in its weekly email to roughly 65,000 subscribers.
• Cost: $250 per posting for nonprofits. Standard postings are active for 60 days and are included in weekly newsletter reaching 50,000+ subscribers. Volume discounts available.
  
• Best for: Any role, when you want the broadest established Jewish-communal audience.

JewishStaffing.com

• A Jewish communal board focused on synagogues, day schools, religious schools, JCCs, and nonprofits, combining direct listings with aggregated ones.
• Cost: $225 per post (discount codes are sometimes shown on the site).
• Best for: Any role, especially at synagogues and schools; a lower-cost alternative or complement to JewishJobs.com.

AllJewishJobs.com
A newer, independent Jewish board with a smaller but growing audience (weekly email to roughly 1,300 subscribers).

• Cost: $360 per month for unlimited postings, or $136 for a single listing.
• Best for: Supplementary reach; most cost-effective if you hire frequently and use the monthly plan.

Use these only for the roles or organization types they serve.

FUNDRAISING AND DEVELOPMENT
AFP Career Center — fundraising roles only

• Run by the Association of Fundraising Professionals, this board reaches credentialed development professionals. (Don’t confuse it with the similarly named Association for Financial Professionals, a different organization.)
• Cost: Global board starts at $399 per post for 30 days. The AFP DC chapter board starts at $175 for 30 days.
• Best for: Development and fundraising roles only (e.g. development director, major gifts officer, grant writer).

EDUCATION
NAIS Career Center — independent schools

• The National Association of Independent Schools runs the standard national job board for independent schools, covering teaching, administrative, and leadership roles.
• Cost: Free to post for NAIS member schools once your account is linked to the school; open to nonmembers as well (posts start at $275).
• Best for: Day school teaching, administrative, and leadership roles, especially at NAIS member schools.

Prizmah Leadership Search — Jewish day school leadership

• Prizmah is the network for Jewish day schools across North America, of all denominations. Its main hiring service is a leadership search team that runs head-of-school and senior-leadership placements.
• Cost: Leadership search is a fee-based engagement; contact Prizmah for terms.
• Best for: Head-of-school and senior leadership searches at Jewish day schools.

Carney Sandoe & Associates — independent school placement

• A national placement firm that recruits teachers and administrators for private and independent schools. It is free for candidates; the school pays a fee when it hires a referred candidate. Useful when you want a firm doing the sourcing for a hard-to-fill or senior role.
• Cost: No posting fee; the school pays a placement fee on a successful hire. Confirm terms with the firm.
• Best for: Hard-to-fill teaching roles and school leadership, when you want active recruiting rather than a posting.

EdWeek TopSchoolJobs — general K-12

• Education Week’s job board, covering K-12 teaching, administration, and leadership broadly. It is a broad board that likely skews toward public and district schools, so treat it as a wide net rather than a targeted channel.
• Cost: Paid; pricing not verified here.
• Best for: Casting a wide net on general teaching and school-administration roles.

Note: For early-childhood and preschool roles, there is no single dedicated Jewish board. The Jewish boards above (JewishJobs.com and JewishStaffing.com), Indeed, and local outreach are the main channels.

SOCIAL WORK AND HUMAN SERVICES
NASW JobLink — social work and clinical roles

• The National Association of Social Workers’ career center, the main professional board for finding credentialed and licensed social workers, with an employer resume database. NASW also runs regional chapter boards, including an NASW Metro DC board that is more local; chapter boards are generally cheaper than the national board, though rates have not been confirmed. The Maryland and Virginia chapters run their own as well.
• Cost: Paid; national posting packages with add-ons (e.g. wider network distribution from about $100), base single-post rate not confirmed. Chapter boards set their own rates.
• Best for: Licensed and clinical social-work roles (e.g. LCSW); use the local chapter board for general or DMV-focused case-management roles.

NJHSA — Jewish human-services agencies

• The Network of Jewish Human Service Agencies, a membership association of Jewish family-service, mental-health, senior, and human-service agencies across North America and beyond. Its site carries member-agency job listings, and it is also on CareerHub.
• Cost: Oriented to member agencies; confirm whether nonmembers can post by checking with NJHSA.
• Best for: Social-services and clinical roles at agencies that are NJHSA members (e.g. Jewish family-service agencies).

SENIOR LEADERSHIP
Executive search firms — CEO and executive director searches

• For chief executive, executive director, and senior-director searches, the norm is to engage an executive search firm rather than post a listing. Several nonprofit search firms can run these searches, including DRG, Koya Partners (part of Diversified Search Group), and Mersky Jaffe & Associates. Of these, DRG and Mersky Jaffe work with Jewish communal organizations; Koya Partners’ specific Jewish-sector experience has not been confirmed.
• Cost: Fee-based engagements; firms commonly charge a percentage of first-year compensation.
• Best for: CEO, executive director, and senior leadership searches, where you want a firm to source and vet candidates.

COMMUNICATIONS AND MARKETING
Specialist communications boards — beyond the general-market boards

• Most communications and marketing roles are well served by the general-market boards, especially Idealist and LinkedIn. For specialist or senior hires, two niche boards can help: PRSA Jobcenter for public relations, and NTEN for nonprofit digital and technology roles.
• Cost: NTEN posts start at $100 for 30 days (members post at half price). PRSA posts start at $299 for 30 days.
• Best for: Senior or specialist PR and digital roles; for generalist communications, use the general-market boards.

CAMPS, JCCs, AND YOUTH
JCC Works — JCCs and camps only

• A board for positions at Jewish Community Centers and Jewish camps across North America.
• Cost: May be free to post. For assistance contact jobs@jcca.org.
• Best for: Roles at JCCs and Jewish camps only.

Foundation for Jewish Camp — camp and youth roles

• A job board run by the Foundation for Jewish Camp, listing positions at Jewish summer camps and related youth programs across North America. It complements JCC Works, and its listings also feed into CareerHub.
• Cost: Free.
• Best for: Camp and youth-program roles, both year-round and seasonal.

For finance, HR, IT, operations, and most administrative roles, there is no specialized board worth the hunt; the general-market options are your best bet.

CareerHub is powered by Getro, which builds the board by reading job listings directly from each participating organization’s careers page. Setting it up once means your future openings appear automatically.

1. Check whether your organization is already listed. Go to jobs.jpro.org, open the “Explore organizations” tab, and search for your organization. Many Greater Washington organizations, including the Federation, are already on it.
2. Claim your profile. If your organization appears, click “Claim your profile now” and create an admin profile. You will need an email address on your organization’s domain to verify that you can manage it.
3. If your organization is not listed, it must be added by CareerHub’s administrators before you can claim it. There’s a form to complete.
4. Connect your careers page. Point your profile to the page on your website where you post jobs. Getro reads that page daily and lists whatever openings it finds.
5. Post jobs in a structured format so they are detected reliably. Openings published through a standard applicant tracking system (e.g. Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, BambooHR, JazzHR) or a structured jobs page are picked up automatically each day. Plain-text listings on a generic web page may not be captured reliably.
6. No careers page? A profile administrator can also post individual jobs directly from the CareerHub admin portal.

A few tips: give each opening its own unique web address, include a salary range, and if you adopt or switch applicant tracking systems, let CareerHub know so your listings keep syncing.
