Can you please help me with 2 Doubts as follows: 1...most of the internships I see at the UN require a background in political science, social science, public administration, or international relations, but my background is mathematics, but my background is mathematics, so it's been very confusing to decide which internship to apply for; therefore, Could you please guide me on what to do in such a situation? 2...I'm preparing for the United Nations, I wanted to request a personal meeting with you. Could I please possibly schedule an online appointment with you?
Hello. 1. That's not correct. You can work at the UN as a driver, a computer analysist or security expert without ANY education in anything political. What matters is education in the field you are applying for. 2. At the moment, I just moved to another country and I'm really busy. Also, I never gave one-on-one advice on the subject before, not sure I can help you more than with the videos I have made.
Hii, my name is Siddhesh and I needed your advice for a small doubt. I am the co-founder of a cleantech company and I wanted to know whether I could apply to a P-2 level if I had more than 4 years of experience while I was in college. Asking this doubt because sometimes organizations count work done while a student is still in college as a part-time job, but in my case, I was running my own company so if you see my hours of work and efforts are more like full-time experience. hence can you please can you guide me on what should do in such a situation.
Thanks for the questions. The UN staff and hiring managers will generally look at the minimum requirements for the posts first. IE education. If you have that, they will look at the answers you provided when applying for that post. When you do the interview, they will ask about your experience, and it is perfectly correct to use your expertise has an owner or co-owner of a company to answer these answers. I have a full video about those, which would apply to you as your experiences with supplies, customers, staff etc... Are just as valid as boss, colleagues etc...
Thank you very much Mario for your great advice, If possible can you please share the name or a link of the video that you have mentioned in the above comment.
