Free pro tips on UN Application Writing

Welcome to koachr.​global. 

I'm Veronika Ambertson, Coach & HR Consultant to international civil servants - past, present and future - and to their organizations.

UN JOB SEARCH SUCCESS

IMPACT CAREER SUPPORT
CAPACITY BUILDING

 

"I got the job!"

This type of message is my favorite to receive - a client who invested their time and energy in preparing well for each step of a UN selection process, sharing good news.

 

The investment paid off,  as effort often does. However, it's important to exert that effort on the right things, in the right way, which is where I can help, if you, too, are applying for jobs in the UN.

Aspiring UN staff?

When it comes to applying for jobs in multi-lateral organizations like the UN, information is power.

 

However, UN organizations are notorious for keeping their processes behind closed doors, and few provide feedback to applicants, even candidates who have been interviewed.

 

Therefore, the most leveraged thing you can do, is to gain some insight into what goes on behind the scenes.

Success Stories

Your expertise and mentorship played a significant role in preparing me for this achievement [of obtaining an international appointment with a UN organization].

Moses M

International Civil Servant

The targeted advice Veronika gave me has been super helpful, enabling me to sharpen my career tools. She really put her experience and expertise to work on my behalf. It's been a pleasure to get the advice and support of such a professional.

Andreas Baker

Chief of Staff, OSCE PA

I would highly recommend Veronika to anyone looking to improve their career life, CV, or even has some questions! Her advice on my CV and cover letter was significantly important and I benefited from every single moment with her. She helped me give more attention to detail and focus on how to shape and represent my duties and achievements in a professional way.

Mohammad Kordi

Project Officer, IOM Iraq

I would readily recommend Veronika's coaching to colleagues and friends as a valuable investment in personal and professional growth.

Aye Olatunde

National Project Officer, IOM

I warmly recommend Veronika to junior and senior professionals alike who wish to enter into a UN career. She will help you focus on your strengths while guiding you in the rather challenging territory of UN recruitment processes.  

Katja Svensson

Senior Development Cooperation Specialist

Although I am an established legal professional with 14 years of experience in international organisations, Veronika helped me to flesh out certain skills for the purpose of making a career move. After her coaching, I got shortlisted more often for different humanitarian and field jobs for which I had been unsuccessful in the past.

Internationa Legal Professional

Success Stories

I highly recommend working with Veronika! I found her professional coaching, resume/cover polishing, and interview prep protips invaluable! I enjoyed working with her immensely ~ her engaging style and the time she took to understand my goals gave me the confidence and enthusiasm to set the wheels in motion to get my career to the next level. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a career coach. Thank you again Veronika!

Amanda Hill-Attkisson

VP Programs, AnitaB.org

I found Veronika's approach to coaching to be dynamic, empathetic, highly professional and clearly focused on achieving the coaching objective. I sought out her coaching services at a point when I thought that my career objective had hit a dead end. Her coaching was spot-on in relation to my objective, very structured in the way she provided real answers and suggestions on concrete actions to take. Not only did desired opportunities come in sooner than expected, they did so thick and fast. Looking back, I reckon that I would definitely not be where I am today professionally, had it not been for Veronika’s expert coaching at a time when I needed it most.
