Growing up the UN was always my dream place of work, even if it meant just as a volunteer. This is very insightful, maybe I will try my luck sooner. And you are right, volunteering is meant to benefit others and there is no small service if given with the right mindset.Will check your site too.Great job!

Thank you Cynthia for sharing this and it's the same thing that I heard even from experienced people in the NGO sector before diving into this sector. The real problem isn't that people don't want to volunteer. The biggest problem is that people are so caught up with their daily struggles that even volunteering without a stipend or any money to show is very difficult.

This is infact the best video made ever about volunteering with the UN. I am a former Red Cross volunteer and currently a Global Communities Program officer currently on contract. All I can say is that volunteering or interning are the only way to get a foot in the door in this sector plus learning the local languages. This is just a job like any other but once you got these, then the jobs will always be flowing.

I have found that these are the most common questions in any interview. What are your weaknesses? Why should we hire you? Why do you want to work here? What are your goals? Why did you leave (or why are you leaving) your job? When were you most satisfied in your job? What can you do for us that other candidates can't?
