UN experience is not necessarily required to get a job at
UNOPS. While having previous experience working for the UN or in a related
field can be an asset, UNOPS is a merit-based organization and all job
applicants are evaluated solely on their qualifications, skills, and experience
related to the position they are applying for.
UNOPS values diversity and welcomes applicants from all
backgrounds who have the relevant qualifications and experience for the
position. The organization seeks to recruit individuals with a variety of
skills and experiences to bring new perspectives and ideas to their work.
In addition to qualifications and experience, UNOPS also
values a commitment to the organization's core values, including
accountability, transparency, and sustainability. It is important to
demonstrate a strong understanding of these values and how they align with the
position you are applying for in your job application.
While UN experience can be beneficial, it is not a
requirement for getting a job at UNOPS. What is most important is that you meet
the qualifications and requirements for the position and can demonstrate a
strong alignment with UNOPS' mission, values, and priorities.
