  • Eye opening analysis. I was 40 when I joined the UN and it took me more than five years to get to the P category. One more thing. The UN recruit people, who did (almost) exactly the same job somewhere else. Many people believe "I could do this and that for the UN". That almost never works as there are hundreds of others with relevant experience. Be pretty good at something and you may get a chance. Do not be sad if you do not succeed. Working for the UN is not always what you are dreaming about.

    Thanks a lot, Hippy in A Suit for the well-rounded UN demographic data. It gives one a panoramic picture and understanding of UN human statistics. You can also consider factoring in UN statistics related to academic levels like Diploma, Associate Degree, Bachelors, Masters, PhD and so on.
  • I would love to see an update on this video every couple years or every year if there’s a drastic change!!! Thanks for the great information!

    Jambo Kylie!Such an eye opening video.Appreciate it.New subscriber from Nairobi,Kenya
  • First off all,thanks for the video! I think your channel have a very special role, specialy when we are trying to thing about the crises that the World is facing right now ! I was thinking about the nationality topic. I think there's much more english speaking countries than other languages. If we go deeper, as in the gender, maybe nationality (or race?) can act in a different way.
  • Thankyou so muchhh for this vedio, lots of love and blessings for you from India 🇮🇳 ❤.

    Thanks a lot! Finally I found an English native speaker, whom I understand without any efforts. Very eloquent and at the same time very easy to follow every single word. :)

    I have submitted several applications in the general services category. It's been over a year and my application status on two has remained under consideration, while another was filled with out an offer for an interview providing equal consideration amongst other eligible candidates. I have come to realize that the odds of obtaining employment with the UN is pretty much like playing the lottery. But it never hurts to try. It's like they say "you have got to be in it, to win it". Good luck.
