Internship in Human Resources Development

Grade: Internship

The ILO Internship Programme provides an opportunity for you:

• Increase your understanding of relevant issues at the international level by involving you directly in the work of the Office and the application of ILO principles, programmes and strategies.
• Gain practical experience with the ILO directly related to your field of study.

Please note that you:

• Are requested to apply to a maximum of three internship profiles, otherwise you will be automatically disqualified.
• Must upload a cover letter. Your CV or resumé uploaded as attachments are not accepted.
• Are able to withdraw your application at any time via the Jobs Applied section of your profile.
• May not be contacted for the duration that this roster is active. Should this be the case, we encourage you to reapply if you are still eligible and available.
• Should not expect employment at the end of the internship.
• Must apply before the deadline. Late applications will not be considered.

The ILO values diversity:

We welcome applications from qualified candidates, including from persons with disabilities and those from non- or under- represented member States.

.

If you are a national of a non- or under-represented member State, who is pursuing or has completed their studies in their home country, you may be eligible to have your travel costs covered by the ILO to Geneva, Switzerland.

IMPORTANT:

You can only apply for an internship if you:

• Have no close relative serving in the ILO (mother, father, brother, sister).
• Have not already undertaken an internship at the ILO.
• Are enrolled in a Master’s or a Doctorate Programme, or have completed such a programme in the year preceding the application.
• Have a working (both oral and written) knowledge of English. This is mandatory.

How to apply:

1. Search for an internship profile via the page on ILO Jobs

2. Select the internship profile you would like to apply for, and create a profile on ILO Jobs

3. Complete your candidate profile and apply to the internship profile

4. Be sure to attach a cover letter in the last section of the application, as applications without a cover letter will not be considered and you cannot attach a cover letter after the deadline.

Following a first screening by the Human Resources Development Department (HRD), hiring departments will short-list applicants. You will be directly contacted should an internship opportunity match your profile. If you have not been contacted by any department within six months after your application, you can consider that you have not been selected by any department for this roster. If still eligible, you may apply to the next roster.

If shortlisted, you may be contacted by the hiring department for a written test and/or interview. The ILO may use communication technologies such as Skype, Video or teleconference, e-mail, etc for the assessment and evaluation of candidates.

Stipend/Financial compensations:

As an intern in Geneva, you will receive a stipend of 2450 CHF per month from the ILO, unless you receive funding through another institution (for example your university or a foundation). If you receive partial funding, ILO will cover the difference to ensure you receive 2450 CHF per month. Your travel to Geneva will be at your own expense. In addition to the amounts referred above, each intern shall receive the amount of CHF45 per month, or the equivalent amount in the currency in which the monthly stipend is paid, which is a contribution from the Office towards the cost of medical insurance to cover the period of the internship.

Qualified candidates from non- and under- represented countries may be eligible for a special fund that provides financial assistance for round-trip airfare (economy class) in addition to the stipend.

Insurance:

Please note that the ILO does not take responsibility for any costs arising from accidents and/or illness incurred during the internship. You will be responsible for your own insurance coverage for illness and accidents for the duration of the internship at the duty station (whether Geneva or the field).

Fraud warning:

The ILO does not charge any fee at any stage of the recruitment process whether at the application, interview, processing or training stage. Messages originating from a non ILO e-mail account - should be disregarded. In addition, the ILO does not require or need to know any information relating to the bank account details of applicants.
