UN Job Application Guide

Dreaming of working with the United Nations but not sure where to start? Trust me, you’re not alone - I've been exactly where you are some time ago. The UN application process can feel confusing and competitive – from drafting the perfect “UN-style” CV to preparing for competency-based interviews.

While I had no one to guide me, in our 60-minute 1:1 session, I’ll guide you through the process step by step. With my experience working in global development and supporting successful UN applications, I’ll help you:

✨ Review and tailor your CV & cover letter to UN standards

✨ Highlight your skills and experiences in a way that resonates with UN recruiters

✨ Build a strategy for landing internships, consultancies, and staff roles

✨ Prepare for written assessments & competency-based interviews with real examples

Whether you’re a student aiming for your first UN internship, or a young professional looking to transition into the development space, this session is designed to give you clarity, confidence, and a clear action plan.
