Hi all. Does anyone have any news about the NETI 2018 selection? I thought it would be launched around the same time as last year. Thanks!

thanks, @erpayo and happy new year all

better this year than next, right? maybe there'll be other opportunities

congrats @WillYang and best of luck in finding a suitable position. sadly, for me it is a no, i've just been notified. so talk to you all next year. happy 2018!

so we can start thinking about the odds that next year they open up a comms track again. i certainly hope so!

thanks for sharing and good luck!

you guys are great for boosting one's morale! @Markee better christmas break than the first week of the new year, if you ask me:))

nor here. i find it difficult to remain optimistic

thanks @Markee

hi guys. separate random question: do you happen to have any insights into whether unicef hires outsiders for P4-level positions? outsiders as in candidates that obviously would be considered fit for the job but with no unicef experience. thanks.

well, we're only five here for this year's programme so not sure that's a high enough number for any calculations. sorry for not being too positive - i do think the selection is probably far from over, so we should stay positive and wait a bit longer

here yes how about you?

no news here either @Candleslights

good thinking:)

so sweet of you to say, thanks:)

you guys think we should still have some hope?

nothing on my end either. thanks for sharing

no idea. but that would also be my assumption - also using it as a way to feel better about myself throughout the waiting:))

Not me

Mine as well, I was expecting at least one question in my second language. And I also keep thinking my answers could have been better! And the phone line was not great... well, we shall see. Good luck everyone!! me too:) best of luck!

Intense is indeed the word:)

In my view, it's all about practice and time management. Difficult to offer any advice though as I do think relevant past professional experiences help with the two.

me too:) best of luck!

thanks both. fingers crossed to all.

i'm also waiting following the competency-based tests for communication. i found the written one ok, even without unicef experience, although very long indeed. less comfortable with the oral though, more difficult from my perspective. but overall, i thought the experience was useful. do you guys expect the results for final stage selection in october? best of luck everyone!
