Your safety comes first — read before you go. Taf4All only lists job offers published by third parties.

Expert Application Advice

When tailoring your CV for IOM, 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."

UN process — Complete an up-to-date, role-specific UN P11 — a generic P11 is disqualifying. Apply within 72 hours of posting: UN agencies often close applications once volume thresholds are reached.

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.
