I applied in September and received an email saying i am eligible to be an intern in November. then i started to prepare the visa and went to Vienna to start my two months internship at the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.
It was a competency based interview. First they asked how knowledgable I was about the subjects the department was working on. Then, they asked me about give examples about how I contributed to the data visualization, data analysis.

Question 1
What was your reason for applying for this position?
I applied through college or university. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at United Nations (New York, NY) in May 2021
Interview
I did a short 30min call for a research fellowship position which was more informal than I expected. The interview was with just the research manager. It was a very short turn around, probably because they needed assistance on the research project asap.
