I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at UNHCR (Sídney) in Jan 2020
Interview
Phone interview with legal officer. They emailed requesting interview and it was set up to be via phone. Fairly casual approach. The conversation was not intimidating and was very friendly.
I had a 30-minute interview that was very cordial and informational. I was asked about my interest in the role, relevant experience, and transferable skills. I was able to ask all my questions about the role and better understand the expectations of the job.
