Winter at the UN HQ

All the training for the little Peacekeeper in the past days was inside. On this page you see why: there is winter and snowfall in New York so the little Peacekeeper gets ready for his work inside.

New UNFPA jobs – UNICEF, UNOPS still pending

Hello together,

tonight I fixed the UNFPA job robot. So check out the UNFPA jobs - they have a few posts open now so have a look!
I would like to draw your attention to the AccessRH vacancies that are offered in Copenhagen and New York now.
I still have a few items to fix on the UN Job List: Currently the UNICEF and UNOPS vacancies are not working well.

More training…

…. and there is more training for the little Peacekeeper…

Training for the little Peacekeeper

The little Peacekeeper is a dedicated Peacekeeper. He needs to do a lot of training. Here you see some push-ups. Can you imagine what the next training session will look like?

The little Peacekeeper visits the UN HQ

Do you know the UN building in New York? Here you see the little Peacekeeper right in front of the nice blue building. You can see the skyline reflecting in the building and if you watch closely you see the different country flags in front of the building.

Winter fun with the little Peacekeeper

By now you probably know that the little Peacekeeper is not only working hard but he also has some good humor. Since it is winter and he is on break he built a little snowman and put his helmet on the snowman. Only for a short while of course – it is cold and he needs to keep his head warm after all.

The little Peacekeeper is doing his duty also in harsh weather conditions. Here you can see him doing his work in deep snow.

Which UN organisation is hiring? The 2009 UN Job List Statistics

It is a good yearly tradition to look back and reflect on where UN vacancies are coming from so after the 2007, 2008 here the statistics, for 2009

The results are not surprising. The top three organisations are still UNDP, WHO and UNOPS. For further details have a look at the UN Job List Resource Page where you can see what the last three days look like, how 2010 is building up and of course review the data from 2007, 2008 and 2009.

Lastly, the usual disclaimer applies: The data you see is a collection of vacancies posted and collected with the UN Job List. Thus the data can in no way be an accurate estimation of how many posts an organisation actually fills.
