Verification notes
Verified on the current official UN Careers record for Job Opening ID 273246. The page identifies Candidate Pool - Intern, Geneva, I-1, posted 5 March 2026, deadline 4 March 2027, and an active Apply Now route. UN Careers states the internship can be remote or in person. The detailed UN description states that IIIM internships are unpaid and that interns bear internship-related expenses; visa-supporting information/documents may be provided for in-person placements where needed. The official page exposes a date but not a reliable timezone-specific closing timestamp, so deadline_date is used.
Job and Scholarship is the discovery and verification layer. Confirm eligibility, dates, salary/funding and application instructions on the original source before submitting anything.
