United Nations Help?

The united nations? HELP!!!?

• Hi, i am more than interested in pursuing a career in teh united nations(UNHCR specifically). In fact, it is my life goal. Now ive heard alot of things, like in order to be a goodwill ambassador you have to be famous or well known. is this true? is there any way around this? and besides being an ambassador, what other careers are there in teh UN where you travel from country to country helping people or speaking to people? I plan to get my masters in International Relations. I know both Spanish and English and i plan on learning Hindu and a couple other languages. I plan to spend 4-6 years working with the peace corps. i am active within my community. would i qualify? or are there any tips as to how i can better qualify for such a position? Please do not tell me to look at the website or the job website, these are of no help to me. i am certain that this is my calling in life and will not think otherwise. PLEASE HELP ME! thank you.

• Answer:

  Since you're not interested in their website, this cite will probably mean nothing to you: Virtually all professional and senior posts require an advanced degree; significant number of years of recent, relevant and specialized work experience, some field experience in developing countries; and at least a working knowledge of a second UN language, usually French or Spanish. (Appointments to Translator or Interpreter posts require passing a qualifying examination.)
