With 2 PhDs and 12+ years across the UN, WHO, and UNICEF, I’ve seen exactly how selection decisions are made — and why strong candidates get filtered out. This is not about “improving your CV.” It’s about understanding the system — and positioning yourself accordingly. I don’t offer generic career advice. I help you understand the logic behind the system, avoid common mistakes, and position yourself strategically. I’ve worked with students and young professionals from around the world who felt lost — and helped them gain clarity, direction, and confidence in their next steps.
