I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at United Nations
Interview
Called for competency based written exam. There were a number of questions and subsections to the questions. It was challenging - mainly on timing. Make sure to read and digest the series of questions, and allocate times before starting.

Interviews at the United Nations follow the same format: Virtual interviews; Panel of 3 people; Most probably you would have done a test prior to this stage. Competency interviewing questions based on the TORs. Have examples in hand cause that's what they will value the most.
