Pros

An extremely exciting work environment in the midst of international affairs and. Never a boring day if you are self-sufficient and request tasks that relate to your skills and interests.

Cons

Some supervisors are reluctant to give interns much responsibility so in order to get much out of your internship one needs to be proactive in asking for tasks and taking on general UN volunteering possibilities at the Head Quarters.
