United Nations Recruitment Presentation
Two UN Outreach Officers from the United Nations Headquarters in New York will be visiting Edinburgh to discuss career opportunities in the United Nations world wide.
Statement from the United Nations:
Does making a difference motivate you? Are you selfless and driven to be a part of a bigger purpose in the service of humanity? Are hope and strength character attributes which guide your zeal to make a difference in a complex world?
Are you willing to travel and work anywhere at a moment’s notice? Do you thrive in an environment that is truly international and multi-cultural, which respects as well as promotes diversity?
The United Nations wants people with integrity who are fair, impartial, honest as well as dynamic proactive, flexible and responsive.
If you think you embody these values then this is the place for you and your career.
Our work touches lives in every corner of the globe and our daily operations are complex, multifaceted and extended directly and indirectly to our 192 Members States. In the last decade, the United Nations has field-based operation with 60 per cent of its staff working away from Headquarters in locations all over the world.
We would love to meet you and your friends. We will give you a brief presentation on the different employment options at the UN as well as on how best to apply. We will also be available to answer your individual questions relating to recruitment at the Organization.
