You got it right, showing you have what is listed only makes you get on the right ones piles, but you need to go beyond. Besides the job-specific skills, I’d highlight things like stakeholder communication, storytelling for impact, cross-functional collaboration, and adaptability, especially since you’ve worked across multiple orgs as a consultant. In interviews, emphasize results (e.g., engagement growth, donor impact, outreach success) and how you tailor messaging to different audiences. Those soft skills go a long way in nonprofit roles!
The first thing that comes to mind is to show results. If you've worked for some notable clients, show that off. Also, it probably makes sense to showcase your social media work.
