Hey i wanted to know if an international student wanted to get a job at WHO after getting their masters in public health, how difficult would it be to get it and would it be safer to get a registered as licensed healthcare professional first through whatever healthcare council the country follows?

[@maryjillfernandez7136]

Hello from California. Today is my first day of class for my MPH. Dr. Martin your video about MPH where you did a matrix was very helpful to look into what is the important facts that we as student need to understand. In other words its the spinal cord of Public Health that I never could imagine. My main concern is that, does Public Health Department have some kind of age limit for internship and employment?

[@elizebathsontain2437]

no age limit

Dear Greg, is it a good scenario when G-6 level staff applies to P-level within UN system? For 2 years I had two interviews for P-level positions in WHO in my country, but in both cases other candidates were chosen. Now I think to try myself in G-6 level at any UN entity and after some time apply for P-level in WHO. Thank you so much for this webinar! It was so interesting!

[@noufomar7471]

What are those G and P levels?

Nadia Evelyne Faher 0 seconds ago Dear Dr. Martin, thank you for this very helpful video. I am interested in pursuing a career in public health. I just have a small query if you could please provide your experience: Many health-related job descriptions on the WHO website have education requirements similar along these lines: “A first level university degree in public health, health sciences or related degree”, “A first level university degree in a health-related field (medicine, public health or closely related field).” I was just wondering, from your own personal experience, whether an undergraduate degree in biological sciences generally tends to be considered to match such WHO eligibility descriptions as I have mentioned above (ex. health-related field/ health sciences); i.e. is it usually considered a related degree? Thank you very much for sharing your experience

[@sauranyerdessov3103]

definetely I will be working in WHO😉
