Behind the UN Job List stands the belief that good people contribute to a great UN system. And The List is an attempt to help as many people as possible to access as many UN job vacancies through technological means.

With this in mind I’m very happy about the growth the UN Job List has experienced over the past months: Both access numbers for the site as well as UN Job List email alerts have  been growing constantly. In fact the email alerts have been growing so much that the internally set limit for alerts to be sent out was reached and so a several hundred of you who signed-up over the past two or three weeks didn’t receive their email alerts. I would like to apologize for this inconvenience and assure you that the issue is now fixed. I increased the UN Job List’s capacity to send emails so you will all get your alerts going forward.

I know that some of you signed-up several times since the system didn’t sent the alert. Please unsubscribe from any UN Job List alert that you don’t need to help me use my resources most economically. Thank you for your help.

In other news I also fixed the UN Job List “New Jobs” RSS feed. One of the most popular pages on the UN Job List is the “New Job” page and the corresponding “New Job RSS” feed is now working better than ever (there were data issues which have been resolved now).

For both of these improvements I want to thank the UN Job List community and more specifically Alexander and Jean who pointed me to the issue and helped me find out what went wrong. Thanks a lot!

Please let me know if you see something fishy on The List, I might not have the time to reply immediately but I will make an effort to fix issues as they arrive.
