Head Start Hires (IHSA Jobs Board)



IHSA supports Illinois Head Start and Early Head Start programs with staff recruitment and retention.  All of our IHSA Members have unlimited 'view' access to job postings on our Career page.  To kick off the free benefit of your own Jobs Board 'admin' access, take 3 steps:

(1) email your request along with your attached PDF for the new listing you wish to feature [see posting requirements below];

(2) designate which staff person at your agency gets to obtain the 'admin' access, (by including that designate's full name & email address);

(3) and finally 'cc' both that designated person AND your Grantee Director before emailing the information and your attached file to info@ilheadstart.org.  It's that easy.  A confirmation email (to both the new Designate and Grantee Director) will be sent out (look for it within 24-48 hours after you see that New Listing posted). 



GENERAL POSTING REQUIREMENTS (free for Members):

To post your Early Head Start or Head Start job openings, please send either a PDF file or a direct link to your agency’s employment web page to: info@ilheadstart.org.  Ensure your job announcement includes the following details:

  • Agency contact information
  • Clear instructions for applicants (e.g., apply via email, phone, or website)
  • Job location (city or specific site)
  • Application deadline, if applicable 
  • If any 3rd party submits job postings on your behalf, the email request MUST 'cc' your agency’s contact person to confirm approval. 
  • IMPORTANT: your listing may remain active for 60–90 days, or longer; until YOUR designated person accesses the IHSA Jobs Board to remove it.  Your designated staff person may access the Jobs Board 24/7 to post/adjust/remove your PDFs. 


FOR NON MEMBERS POSTING REQUESTS:

Forward your PDF file (as instructed above).  Non-member postings ($50 each) have a 30-day expiration, including weekends and holidays. Upon consent and payment, a link to your IHSA invoice will be emailed to you. Paying by credit card will now include a 4.09% transaction fee (by PayPal). Regular social posts are included, bringing our viewers to this IHSA jobs page.
