UN agency directory

The most expensive assumption you can make in a UN job search is that the UN is one employer with one careers page. It is not. The common system is a federation of organisations that recruit separately, on different contracts, through different portals, and if you are watching only Inspira you never see most of the vacancies you are qualified for. I built this directory because that one assumption costs more candidates more opportunities than any other.

This directory lists 47 organisations across 7 groupings: what each one hires, the contract types it uses, where it is based, and the portal it actually posts on.

What the full directory adds

Each entry here carries what is publicly checkable. Enrolled students get the rest: how each portal actually behaves and where applications die in it, what the organisation is like to work in, the mistakes that recur in applications to it, and the realistic route in at each level. See what is included, or start with the free lessons.

Portals and contract names change, so I keep this current rather than leaving it to age. Every entry carries the organisation’s own pages so you can check it against the source yourself, and the month I last checked it.
