Career Insights: The United Nations

[@amanda2412]

I thought this was a video about someone from Sri Lanka that overcame many institutional and cultural barriers and now holds a top position in the UN. However, for what he says in the video, he is basically from New Zealand, only born elsewhere, which means his first language is English and he was educated in a developed country. His interview was great and brought relevant topics. But it would also be very interesting to hear from more professionals from the UN that hold similar positions and were raised and educated in developing countries and are not native English speakers. Because in such situations, we are not exposed to opportunities to work for the UN and it frankly seems like an unachievable job. There are many obstacles: the fact that our university degrees are not considered “strong” compared to the international cohort that studied in developed countries with first rate institutions, the fact that our currency is weak and so it is much more difficult to undertake international internships and jobs, and the list goes on. It would be fantastic if you interviewed someone with a background similar to that exposed above, if possible. Thank you for sharing insights on how to get to the UN and keep up with this beautiful project, hopefully covering more diverse backgrounds too!

Thank you Amanda. As a Brazilian student, this touches me deeply

Yes,A have a point it will be great if you can consider her point.

It's all lies. They choose based on the prestige of the school that you attended

[@willyt9245]

Just want to say that your videos are incredible motivation. I've never really planned on working at the UN, and although is it unlikely that will change, this just goes to show that your videos are also a form of art: they spark feelings.

Thanks so much William!

good insights but music especially bass is high so speech is less audible.

I did the Change the world Model UN in 2016 (it's the one that happens inside the actual United Nations HQ in New York) and that's what sparked my interest in diplomacy and working for the UN. Now my interests have changed a bit but this video really motivated me.

Is it hard to get into the UN? Also international relations or international studies...which one is more applicable here?. I m really interested in working in the UN.

[@ismaelbeltran7654]

xoxo Tou's they’re both same. Just different school call international relations different names. But all in all they’re the same.

[@theartisthasarrived]

My college wrote that if you've got dual citizenship you've got a better chance of getting hired. Also having a masters degree and doing a internship is helpful. Having knowledge in a second language is also beneficial to your resume.

[@theartisthasarrived]

So yeah it is pretty fking hard. It's not the type of job that you can get with just a four year degree.

What i know is many cases from people who work at the UN, by military and by nave and they have many issues by the payment back there benefit

Issues in getting paid?

International law says no one can be denied asylum when warranted, it takes a United Nations procedure court to decided if its warranted, you can reapply its takes a process to look at any changed circumstance that might have changed or if the original denial is appealed & granted.

Be honest. UN chooses applicants based on the prestige of the university that the applicant attended. If a person did not attend ivy league or top 10 school, then he/she doesn't have a chance unless the person speaks a rare foreign language that is being sought by the UN
