Hi,

I know I may sound like a spoiled child given the general context and I am sorry for this.

So I have been working for basically the same INGO for 5 years on and off. I am expecting to receive an offer for a consultant contract within a UN agency in the coming days. The position is interesting and relevant, it is basically what I want to do moving forward with my career.

I would have to quit my current current (fixed term). And my INGO is also going through a layoff plan so on the long term perspectives are scarce even though I could expect extensions.

I am just so anxious about telling it to my colleagues. People working in NGO's are so judgmental of UN's work (only mercenaries go there, UN is useless and waste of money etc). I do not particularly share this view and I would be working in an essential coordination mechanism, but can understand the critics.

Anyway, maybe I am overthinking it but I feel like I'll be criticized for it.

Just makes me feel sad and anxious somehow and I wanted to share it. Had anyone been in the same position ?

Hello tout le monde, désolé si c'est une question qui revient régulièrement.

Je suis Français et je travaille en Belgique pour 6 mois, sous contrat Belge. A la fin de mon contrat je compte retourner en France où j'ai déjà cotisé 3 mois, et j'aurai le droit à l'assurance chomâge.

J'ai lu sur internet que les indemnités s'appuyaient sur le salaire FRANCAIS, et que je pouvais seulement faire valoir le TEMPS de travail en Belgique pour allonger mon chomage.

Donc là si j'ai bien compris, je pourrai faire valoir 9 mois de cotisation (3+6) mais sur la base de mon salaire français uniquement (dommage, il est beaucoup moins élévé).

Est-ce que quelqu'un a déjà été dans ce cas et peut partager son expérience. ?

So I've been contacted directly by the hiring manager about the opening of a position in his team.

However, it is a difficult duty station. I don't want to sound like it's my sole interest to him, but the RnR policy will make a big difference here. Is there a mean to know about it without asking this person ?

Thanks !

Hello,

I go added to a UN roster recently. Also, I hold a bachelor degree and was considering to go for a master in the same field, would it increase my salary on a same given position ?

Thanks !
