UN Job List Twitter Accounts

The UN Job List exists since I believe that great people make the UN System great. And I wanted to make it as easy for great people to find their spot in the UN System as possible. So to achieve that, I added not only offer bookmarking friendly search results pages, custom RSS or e-mail alerts but also to offer the job updates via Twitter.

@UNJobList has been pumping out jobs via Twitter for a while and to take care of different tweet formatting, I added @UNJobList_DL and @UNJobList_DS at a later point, too. Whenever I found interesting resources to share, or implemented any new thing on the UN Job List, I threw these news into the existing streams.

However, there are people out there who are not interested in the jobs directly but want to get the updates and others who just want to get the jobs and not the updates. Also, there are a lot of jobs and so there is a flood of job tweets which makes it hard to follow the news tweets. It was time to do something about this setup and so as of today there will be a new account @UNJobList_news which is dedicated to conversations with UN Job List users and the occasional news announcement.

In a nutshell this is what the setup looks like:

  • @UNJobList_news: Conversations, news, announcements, questions interesting links.
  • All jobs land on Twitter as soon as they are discovered by the UN Job List
  1. @UNJobList: Tweets carry Post Title & Job Level
  2. @UNJobList_DL: Tweets carry Post Title & Application Deadline
  3. @UNJobList_DS: Tweets carry Post Title & Duty Station

Note: All three job feeds carry the same content, the only difference is the formatting so no need to follow more than one.

I personally recommend you following the @UNJobList_news and any of the other feeds according to your taste to get the full coverage. But make sure you follow @UNJobList_news to stay up to date with what is happening on the UN Job List.

Talk to you soon,
Sebastian

PS: Just to make things perfectly clear: Everything I say on Twitter (and on Facebook and also here on my blog) is my own. I don’t speak for neither my employer nor for anyone else.
