Expert Application Advice

When tailoring your CV for United Nations, don’t just list duties; frame each role as a solved security problem. If the posting mentions les compétences demandées dans l'annonce, lead with that exact term in your summary—recruiters scan for keywords first. Quantify your impact: "reduced incidents by 15%" speaks louder than "managed security."

International NGO — NGO recruiters read your cover letter to assess your understanding of the humanitarian mission, not just technical skills. Show you know the country field context and the specific challenges of this sector.

Certifications and procedures — List your current certifications (fire safety, first aid, crisis management) with dates. Prepare concrete risk situation examples — the clarity of your response procedures is the real assessment criterion.

🎯 Make your application ATS-ready

ATS (Applicant Tracking Systems) are the software recruiters use to automatically filter CVs before any human reads them. Our CV builder is specifically designed to pass these filters — and it takes under 3 minutes.

  • •Never pay any amount of money — for a file, a training, a uniform, or an interview. A real employer never asks the candidate to pay.
  • •Never send a photo of your ID card, passport, or banking details before you have physically verified the employer exists.
  • •Always meet in a public place, during the day — never an isolated address, a private home, or a location you cannot verify in advance.
  • •Tell a relative or friend exactly where you are going, with whom, and at what time — and share your live location if possible.
  • •Search the company name online before going: a real business has a trace (website, reviews, other employees, an official address).
  • •A salary that is far above the market rate for the position and the city is a red flag — be extra cautious.
