  1. M&E people, P3 position in Tanzania just out. Get on that if you're not already!
  2. Valéry and Bts, any update on induction dates? Cheers
  3. Hi TG . It's a country office, but I'd rather keep the location under wraps for now. And yes still the P2 position.
  4. Hey bts. I'm going to my posting next month. I did have the final interview with the country office. I don't know if I was the only candidate they interviewed, but the interview itself was pretty technical (mine was, to be honest, a lot more technical and harder than the NETI interview). I guess it can vary depending on the country office, though. If I were you I'd just go on with the job offer you accepted, the unicef process can take (yet) more time. If a firm unicef offer does materialize, I'm sure your employer will understand and unicef will let you give fair notice.
  5. Hey Val. Yes, I got an email saying to log on to the recruitment website to get my terms of employment (salary and entitlements) and letter of appointment. I had to complete a form (update of personal details) , and then had to print, sign, and scan the offer of appointment letter, and email it back. Then you receive onboarding instructions. Easy piece-y.
  6. In my talent group days (says the old man) they told me that I should apply to positions I'm interested in and write to the person in HR who notified me of my talent group placement to let them know I was applying. They also old me that there was no guarantee that a country office would chose from the talent group. That said, I've also been told that this year the process is going to be slightly different, because there are new recruitment rules aimed at increasing country offices' use of the talent groups. So I'd say, if you've been notified you're in a talent group and see a position at the appropriate level you'd be interested in, let HR know. It can't hurt.
  7. Hey BTS, check out the employment page, a post for social policy specialist p3 in Myanmar just came up. Perhaps they'll offer this to someone in the talent pool
  8. I'm making the opposite journey, World Bank for UNICEF. Best of luck at the bank! And keep trying, for me third time was the charm.
  9. Just one: have hard deadlines for each phase of the process and stick to them.
  10. Hi all, Just logged in to the UNICEF website and noticed that, although I haven't received a notification letter, my status has changed to "assigned to talent group". Check yours!
  11. Congrats BTS! Fingers crossed you get a NETI post and we meet in NY!
  12. I'm sure there will be more winners here! Btw, thank you all for keeping this thread going, it's very useful for managing the anxiety and uncertainty throughout this very, very, very long process.
  13. Thanks! I'm sure you'll get an offer soon and we'll see each other in NY! Didn't you say btw that they told you the post they were interviewing for?
  14. Hi Valery, yes I've been in the P2 talent pool for a couple of years now, but they only now offered me a position. Sucks because now I will accept the position (I'd be crazy not to, right?) but that will mean foregoing my chance for a P3 position from this year's selection process. Anyway, hopefully see you in NY!
