Career Opportunities

Before I started work with UNANZ, I used to wonder how one was supposed to establish some sort of a career working for an organisation like the United Nations. Such establishments can seem intimidating and 'out of your league'. But looking through the UNANZ website, I found that there is a useful option on the web page for those who wish to pursue a career with either UNANZ or the UN. For those of you like me who would be interested in a career in New Zealand or possibly overseas working for the United Nations, the UNANZ website offers some guidance and opportunities available.

On the UNANZ website, under the subtitle 'THE UN', there is a list of UN Recruitment Sites which link you to some opportunities available.

- United Nations Careers Website
- International Civil Service Commission
- Volunteer Opportunities

There is also a huge amount of organisations listed on the UNANZ website that are linked to the United Nations and offer those who are interested in getting to know the UN better or are curious about pursuing some sort of a career with the UN. Just some of these organisations include:

- An internship held at the United Nations Headquarters in New York

- The United Nation's Children's Fund UNICEF

- The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change

- World Health Organisation WHO

There is also a list of organisations that are related to the United Nations. To have a look in more detail at these options including many more that are mentioned on the website, click here -
