Friend: just do it, don't ask

Where is my cup? I lost my important part of my day, even starter! How could I start working without my orange cup. I put it right back front of me on my table, but I could not find it! I am puzzled. Then, ease myself thinking the clear guy put it away. Strange, he would not do it without asking me.

I am in endless search with my hand and deep inside of think.

Dinara handed me something, a brand new cup, I said myself "it is not mine". So different, inside, it is totally white now and glistering with shine of just washed look. Yes, it is my cup. She took it home and cleaned it. NOw, I have a brand new cup.

I left it without well cleaning for a month. I do rinse, but stain of tea is there:( yeaw! She reminded me a few days ago. "You should wash it, do not leave it like that, bad for your health" Dinara said. After days, she just did it without asking me.

I am super happy now. I shine when I see my cup. Thank you Dinara for doing it for me . I know you just did it. I simply love you my friend.

Job at UN

As a part of intern, it is amazing to meet other people associated with UN and we share some interesting tips about UN.

Vick and Viviana happily hosted a volunteer session on about getting a job at UN. So, i am sharing what I heard from the two wonderful staff about getting a job at UN.

If you are thinking about UN job, CV is not a document you have to submit. They have their own forms an formats that they only process it through! So have the forms such as PHP to download from UN recruitment website!.

Recruitment process at UN
There are three main ways that you can get a job at UN.
1. First and most formal one is the official process. Go to online Galaxy site. It is only way:-) here the link is http://jobs.un.org/Galaxy/Release3/vacancy/vacancy.aspx?lang=1200
Before applying, you have to pass an exam - that is only available if your country is calling for applicants! have a look at their web. it is http://www.un.org/Depts/OHRM/examin/exam.htm
So, you can apply for jobs if you have passed the test!
2. Next way of getting UN job is some program that your government sponsors! They pay for your wage, not covered by UN. Check out with your foreign ministry office about it:-)
3. A third way of getting a job is by a consultancy jobs. They are mostly short term vacancies. Check out specific UN agencies and programs for this type of jobs:-) Plus, UN volunteer is a good option to get into UN bodies, UN covers most of your expenses!

Well, that is it. Good luck with your career!
