Careers at the United Nations

CGEP’s Women in Energy initiative hosted a virtual information session focused on career pathways at the United Nations, one of the world’s leading international organizations dedicated to promoting peace, human rights, and sustainable development. This event is presented in partnership with the DMUN Foundation and features a DMUN representative, Alexa Dominique Pascual, alongside a Human Resources specialist from the United Nations, Mahmoud Almasri. Together, they provided an overview of the UN’s mission, structure, and recruitment process, with a particular emphasis on current and upcoming employment opportunities. Attendees gained insights into the skills and qualifications the UN seeks in candidates, strategies for navigating the application process, and what it’s like to build a career in international affairs and global development.
