5 useful tips for UN interviews: United Nations jobs

5 useful tips for UN interviews: 

 

1. Prepare a wide range of brief real-life stories about your accomplishments. Be aware of the specific skills each story illustrates and remember to include the positive outcome or lesson learned from each experience.
2. Be ready to discuss your strengths and your ability to learn from past experiences. Also, think about how you could contribute to the work of the United Nations and to the specific position you are applying for.
3. Review the competencies mentioned in the job opening. These will be probed in your interview, so your stories should show your skill in these competency areas.
4. The structure of your answer should be: Situation, Action, Result.
5. Practice, practice, practice.
