I applied in Feb 2019, technical test probably April/May 2019, then had the interview and later language test in September 2019 and was informed of success in November 2019.

I am sure that for populating the FIT pool, that they take more candidates..however, my hopes are not too high as I know that WFP operates in some of the most dangerous places in the world, and my family situation is not let's say ideal for something like that. But let's see, maybe something comes up in a more family-friendly location:)

No offers so far?

I had received an offer for a short time consultancy in Rome from WFP through the FIT pool not instead a fixed term position, but more like "while waiting for a P2 offer". I was reluctant and wasn't selected in the end, but WFP assured me that this would not itnerfere with my FIT pool position in any kind.

Nothing since that (mid December)....

Not wanting to discourage anyone, but 2 years ago I was placed on a similar roster for P3 Programme Officer with UNHCR and only received one invite for interview for a temporary P2 (!) position in Mosul, Iraq. If WFP went through all the trouble of selecting and testing candidates, seems a bit expensive for just 'using' them for temporary or consultancy opportunities. But knowing the UN, I would not be surprised. Too bad.

Good morning !

I was recently invited to the HR officer technical exam and I would much appreciate if any of you who have taken this exam before could share her/his experience on what to expect.

Also, Do you know if P3 is a good starting job at WFP? Regarding job salary and benefits mainly.

many thanks and greetings from Perú

Hi All,

I received an EOI for a short term consultancy for Supply Chain, Logistics and Procurement at HQ or country office. They said is not related to the application for the Fit Pool and that my response will have no impact on the application process. This is similar to what HEGD shared. Any thoughts? Anyone else received a similar e-mail?

@Ivette, sorry I don't have any info on HR technical exam but for supply chain we had some multiple choice questions, T/F, and a case study. Time is of the essence, you have to manage your time well. All the best.

Hi! that's great news. P3 is a great starting point and i am sure in any duty station, a family of 4 could live on a P3 salary (with only one partner working)

 

best of luck!

Hello All,

Just joining this forum! Big ups to those who initiated it, very informative indeed!

Like my colleague Moe Ibrahim, I also applied for Partnerships Officer P2 April 10th 2020 and have been invited for a technical test April 25th 2020. Anyone with any ideas on how to prepare for such exam, any reference materials to use and so on?

Thanks a lot and best regards.
