Hi Mario. Thank you for your hard work on this. Your video is super informative. I would like to know if the G6s also would be considered for the post-adjustment in New York. Thanks again.

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller Жыл бұрын

No, because G posts are local posts. But, a G6 in NY is about the same as a P2 post. It starts at 51,000$ without the benefits, pension, dependants etc... So, I would guess about 6,000 USD a month net at step 1.

Hi Mario. Thank you for your hard work on this. I would like to know if the G5 (project Assistant - community Mobilization) also would be considered for the post-adjustment in Doha - Qarar, and what is the base salary scale for this position. Thanks again

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller 29 күн бұрын

Yes, G5 positions, like other staff categories, are eligible for post-adjustment. This means that a G5 staff member in Doha, Qatar, will receive a salary that includes the post-adjustment component to reflect the cost of living in Doha. At the moment, looks like Doha is at 50 %, and G5 is at 45,000 USD in NY, so + 50 % would be 67,500$ in Doha + the step adjustment.

Hi Mario, I applied for research assistant, however, it is P4, is it legit?. I do not have that experience for P4. I filled all the necessary paper work. they also indicated that I must pay for residential visa to the department immigration. It is called administration fee. Please advice. I do not have the money.

@Yawar1986 Жыл бұрын

Hi, quick question? So I have seen some P3-P4 jobs in NYC, does that means that those jobs are only for foreigners who would take a job in NYC? or also applicants from another states can apply too, thanks

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller Жыл бұрын

An American can apply for a P or D post in the US, but you would lose all the benefits of your G4 diplomatic visa, tax exemption, the education grant, rental subsidies etc... So it is not worth doing it for most people.

Hi Mario, I first want to thank you for all your effort in all the videos you have created. I am originally from Syria and came to Canada about three years ago from Lebanon as an immigrant with my family. I worked at a very young age in a mechanic shop for more than eight years in Lebanon, and unfortunately, I could not go to school for eight years. However, I am about to graduate high school here in Calgary, AB, officially. I also got a Job with one of the top dealerships in AB. I honestly was interested in getting a job with the UN because they helped me and my family to come to a great country Canada and helped me to pursue my education/ dreams. Now can you please instruct me on where to start at? What kind of degree do I need to be able to apply for p2 or p3? I also fluently speak three languages. I do not know if that will help with anything. An enormous application for taking the time to read this comment👍😊.

Thanks for getting back to me, Mario 👍😊. I have used the website several times to look for an international Job in the middle east with my high school diploma. However, there are fewer opportunities. What level will I be starting at with my high school diploma? And how can I work my way up in getting a certification to get an excellent international job as P2 or P3? I’m grateful for your taking the time to answer my question.

Video is really helpful. Mario could you please guide what service cadre(P or FS) and level (2,3,4,5) the UN Police(IPO) recruited through UN SAAT for a period of one or two years ?

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller Жыл бұрын

Hello Chi. The UN Police (Individual Police Officers - IPOs) are generally recruited through the UN Selection Assistance and Assessment Team (SAAT) process. As you know. The level and cadre can vary depending on a variety of factors, including the specific mission, the officer's qualifications, experience, and the specific needs of the UN at the time of recruitment. You can check on Inspira, careers.un.org and look at what is available and what are the requirements and see where you match. That's the best answer I can give you.

Hi mario, thanks for the video, how many years of service should you render before you can be eligible for retirement? Also, if you retire at age like 30s or 40s, will you be receiving pension immediately or you should wait until 60?

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller Жыл бұрын

That's a complicated answer that merits a complete video. It will depend on when you start at the UN. If it starts at 60 and needs to retire at 65, you will only have 5 years and a really low pension. If you start at 25 years old and retire at 40, you will have 15 years but still a lower pension (1 % x 10 years and 1.5 % x 5 more years). Basically, you get 1% per year at first, then 1.5 % at 10 years and 2 % after 15 years... So, you accumulate more pensions faster if you stay longer. After 32 years, you are maxed out at 70 % of the average of your last 3 years of work. I'll make a video about it.

Hi sir! I've heard that there is a huge barrier between G posts and P posts, is it really hard to move to Professional posts if one is coming from a G service post? Is this also true for national officers wanting to seek a career in P-service posts?

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller Жыл бұрын

I think I have discussed it in one of the videos. Still, you are correct. It is almost impossible in the same organization. However, you have a better chance if you go from G6 or G7 to P2 international. Especially if you have additional degrees or experience that can justify why you are applying for an international post from G.

@Baraka-yl2dp Жыл бұрын

You almost left out the Field Service Staff (FS) and you left out the National Professional Staff (NPO), which would be the Professional Staff for locals.

I noticed that the UN says they don't care about your immigration status but you have to be available for the interview or testing etc and relocate at your own cost. Does that mean that anyone can apply for even General service entry level jobs and even if it you can , will it make sense ?

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller Жыл бұрын

As far as I know. The UN being an international organization, they can hire you without a work permit in the country where they are located. But, sometimes, the host country might have agreements like... We provide you the building, electricity etc... So, in return, the GS staff need to be citizens of my country. Then, you would have tax-free import of your goods, no help with the visa and not many benefits. I'm curious, I'll go read the staff rules about it. Personally, I think you are better off as an international P2 in Africa than a local G6 in New York.

Good day sir! Can an incumbent National Officer (NO-B) apply for P-2 or P-3 positions? Will it be very difficult to progress to an international position? Thank you mario

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller Жыл бұрын

It is hard, but not impossible. I have a friend that was a G6 and acted on a P3 post for almost a year. When he applied, and he got it. Seeing that it was not great to be P3 in your own country, he applied for another P3 in Geneva and got it again. Now, ten years later he is P4.

Likely not, unless you can live in the United States by yourself. The UN will not help a G staff move and get US visas. Only P2 and above will get G4 visas to live in the US and work at the UN.

They do and with the same level of acceptance as they would a qualified foreign candidate. The reason why it is rare is that because locals don't apply as they lose almost all the benefits.

Any idea on consultancy contracts?

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller 11 ай бұрын

Consultants are mostly retiring and retired UN staff. Friends of staff or people that have managed to get into the system via procurement or apply for a minor contract or two, which have a low barrier to entry. Then, they are in and apply or are called for long-term or more significant contracts. If you have a company you need to manage to add yourself to the approved list of suppliers and have some history with NGO.

for NO-A?

@MarioStingerPerpetualTraveller 7 ай бұрын

Tough. The salary of a National Officer (NO-A) at the United Nations is not universally fixed; rather, it is determined based on the local salary scale in the country where the officer is stationed. Unlike the international professional staff (like those on the P-scale), who have a base salary scale that is adjusted for cost of living and other factors globally, National Officers are compensated in accordance with the best prevailing local conditions of employment. So, it depends on the host country.
