text: about fundraising officer? i'm gonna have an interview for a fundraising officer position, but i have no fundraising experience. how can i persuade the company to hire me? good luck with that.  i don't know if you are in canada but i do know that most big fund-raising organizations want you to have a university degree.  do you have any new and original ideas for a fundraiser?  if so pitch the ideas.  ask someone close to you to let you practice on them but tell them to be brutally honest.  if you don't have any fresh ideas, don't even bother to embarrass yourself at an interview.  whatever happens, good luck.
