      Application

      I applied online. The process took 6 months. I interviewed at United Nations

      Interview

      I was convoked for their written test. It was a test about how good you know about UN system and that's all. More than 70% of the test contained UN questions like name x no. of UN peace keeping missions, What are Millenium Development Goals etc..

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at United Nations in Jul 2018

      Interview

      Long hiring process. Applied through the UN careers website in August, convoked to a written test in October, took the 4-hour test in December at UN New York HQ. Found out July of the following year that I had passed the test and was invited to participate in a 1-hour phone interview with 4-5 officers plus HR. The questions were not hard necessarily, they are all common sense questions that you can prepare for by googling competency-based interview questions, but there were a LOT of questions and it was exhausting. Passed the interview and was added to the roster in September.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What is an example of a challenge that came up when you were working in a team setting, and how did you and your team work to address it?
