Considering a Career at International Organisations? This event is
a good opportunity to meet their reps f2f and make applications for open
roles.
ICD as a one day event in
Bern is organised every year to promote Switzerland`s presence within
international organisations. As presented in the opening speech 2/3 of UN`s
global decisions are taken at UN premises in Geneva, Switzerland.
As a strategy from federal
council to raise Switzerland`s representation in international organisations,
event aims to bring international organisation reps and people who seek to join
them together.
At the event, after a
short opening speech, people had chances to visit desks and chat about working
conditions, career opportunities and some benefits.
Target Audience was to
capture promising young Swiss academics with work experience. However, as I had
seen a mixture of different backgrounds joined the event.
One of the outcomes of my
discussions with UN and ILO reps was employee contracts and benefits vary as
these organisations do not function like corporations. You can find a lot of
temporary openings and most of them are based in Geneva.
