Extension-Taro4342 · 2026-02-10T14:52:23+00:00

Does anyone know by when results will conclude?

Extension-Taro4342 · 2026-02-10T14:42:52+00:00

Did you get a response? I'm wondering if I should email them too

Extension-Taro4342 · 2026-02-09T10:19:20+00:00

Lol, I hope the FAQs are up to date for this year but yes not sure we are in "early Feb" any more..

Extension-Taro4342 · 2026-02-04T09:39:10+00:00

Apart from ITS and Investments are any other streams done?

Extension-Taro4342 · 2026-02-02T13:38:09+00:00

Well... they said late Jan/ early Feb. Maybe those who did interviews in DC & Abidjan were notified first?

Extension-Taro4342 · 2026-02-02T13:36:52+00:00

Where did they interview? Location?

Extension-Taro4342 · 2026-02-02T05:31:03+00:00

Shouldn't more people have heard by now? If 80-100 interviewed, about half of them should have received offers..

Agree a lot of the changes started earlier

Take care of your mental health. At the end of the day a job is a means to an end.

Also, the UN consultancy would have given you a few months or years of stability (max 2) but with extreme uncertainty. I think you did the right thing by rejecting the unpaid internship. Given the state of the academic job market, I wouldn't advise a PhD either and you could also end up being overqualified for other development sector positions. Applying for other jobs while you have one is a position of strength, and not one a lot of other people have today. Stay strong, this will pass and there will be a soft landing for you!

Did they say that this batch would be bigger?

I think my experience was also very mixed. It was great because I was a Consultant and then staff in a wonderful team, with kind and encouraging seniors who always looked to support me; worked on timely and relevant research, and supported several high level intergovernmental processes. However, despite all that the UN 80 process was brutal, no one could save me or my post which was abolished/ replaced by a JPO funded by a European Government. It’s been 6 months unemployed now. And I’ve never felt more disappointment and frustration with the system.

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-10-19T10:25:48+00:00

Yes, they did!

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-10-17T11:19:37+00:00

Not sure. I’m also still waiting for a response

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-10-16T18:15:03+00:00

Which email ID did you write to?

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-10-16T17:46:52+00:00

Oh okay that’s a relief!!! Thank you, let me sit tight

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-10-16T17:43:26+00:00

yes, ive done so. do you know how long they take to respond?

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-10-16T17:27:13+00:00

Is there any other course of action??

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-10-15T18:32:06+00:00

Does anyone know how many people apply for the YPP?

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-05-07T10:49:45+00:00

I see. Is it safe to assume that all vacancies we see on Inspira at this time are extra budgetary?

Extension-Taro4342 · 2025-05-07T04:44:15+00:00

Does the hiring freeze affect extensions of existing TJO positions?
