Hey!

In this video, I read the cover letter that got me my internship at the UN aloud. I've also sprinkled in some gentle reminders.

I'm so sorry for the focus issues in this video. I will NOT have a lit candle in my videos going forward.

I hope this video encourages you to put your best foot forward!

    Hi Lamia, I am Siddhesh. I observed that you have a strong and impressive background in communications while watching this video, and since I am also applying to UNICEF, I found two internships related to communications. So I thought I would let you and your followers know about these two positions. Even though I don't know if you intend to pursue a second internship in communications, I chose to share this nevertheless because I believe some of your followers would be interested in this field. Thank you.

    Could you make an updated cover letter video that summarizes your new experience? Thank you!!
  • Thank you so much for answering my previous question it really helps. I have another question; when location is "Home Based" on an internship post for UN what does it means?

  • When you realise it's more because of her achievements on other platforms
  • Hi Lamia. Thanks for sharing. I've been looking up max cover letter length allowed and I keep seeing "1 page" and "400 words". Is this true? I feel like I have so much to say. Also, did you write your name and contact details in the letter or just in your cv?
  • Hi Lamia! Thank you so much for the video. I am having a doubt: the UNICEF internship post asks for a copy of my highest level of education certificate. Which certificate should I upload if I finished my 3rd-year of undergraduate but have not graduated yet?

    Please make video how to upload all attachments step by step because most of us we make mistakes in filling those steps
