What are jobs in the non-profit organizations?

Finding jobs at international organizations such as UNESCO, UNICEF

• I'm trying to find open positions international organizations such as UNESCO, UNICEF for a Political Science/International Relations recent college graduate. How would you recommend finding such jobs? Are there specific web sites? Or some other good resource?

• Answer:

  Hello upscale-ga, One of your other questions mentions that you?re a recent graduate. I suggest that you contact your school?s career center as a first step in your career search. They should have lots of resources available for helping current students and recent alumns. They should also be able to give you insights and advice about what careers graduates in your major have embarked on. As you requested, I?ve located information for you about applying to UNESCO and UNICEF. These organizations have excellent web pages that give you all you need to know about pursuing a career with them. In addition, I?ve also collected some resources for exploring international jobs and jobs for Political Science majors. Exploring these links should give you a good start on getting a clearer focus on how to approach your job search. Best wishes for an international career. ~ czh ~ =========================================== UNESCO, UNICEF, INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZATIONS =========================================== http://www.state.gov/p/io/empl/11079.htm United Nations and Other International Organizations: Web Site Addresses International Organization Employment Vacancy Information This page links you to over 20 UN and other international organization employment web sites. http://portal.unesco.org/en/ev.php@URL_ID=11762&URL_DO=DO_TOPIC&URL_SECTION=201.html Overview of work opportunities at UNESCO This is a very complete and detailed resource guide for job opportunities with UNESCO. http://www.unicef.org/about/employ/index.html Careers at UNICEF This site gives you complete instructions for applying for employment with UNICEF.
