I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UNICEF (New York, NY) in May 2012
Interview
Submit application including cover letter through the job portal. One phone interview that lasts about 30 minutes, with mainly generic and behavioural questions, though more technical questions may be asked depending on the role. An employee recommendation is very useful!
Written test with questions emailed to you right before the test begins, and followed by a 30-minute short interview; these are all part of so-called technical evaluation. Both rounds were conducted online.

Question 1
What was your experience managing different priorities?
Very harsh interviews, very demanding on your background. We basically discussed about the situation in South Africa and Namibia, as I mentioned in my CV that I have been working as volunteers there. UNICEF has a few projects there and they challenged my understanding about local political practices.
