NYCJobs & Employment Help

Hi everyone!

I'm a recent graduate with a MPA (GPA: 3.93) and currently work for the city. My background consists of legal support, regulatory compliance, case management, policy implementation, stakeholder engagement, and advocacy. I've also worked in special education compliance and dispute resolution, collaborating with attorneys, administrators, families, and government stakeholders.

I'm looking to transition into roles such as:

• Government Affairs Associate

• Public Affairs Associate

• Policy Analyst

• Legal Compliance Analyst

• Regulatory Affairs Associate

• Legal Project Coordinator/Manager

• Advocacy or Community Affairs roles

I've applied to a number of positions through NYC Jobs and several applications are currently "In Review," but I haven't progressed beyond that stage yet.

Does anyone know of organizations, agencies, law firms, nonprofits, consulting firms, or companies that are hiring for entry- to mid-level public policy, government affairs, compliance, legal operations, or advocacy roles. I'd also appreciate any networking advice, recruiter recommendations, or job boards that have worked well for people in these fields.

Thanks in advance!
