DGC Jobs 2026

Use the United Nations Careers Portal and filter by **Department/Office: Department of Global Communications**. Search further by job family, level and duty station. DGC listings can be Public Information Officer posts, multimedia or digital roles, positions in United Nations Information Centres, country-based contracts or internships. Open the full description before deciding whether to apply.

Read the organizational setting and responsibilities closely. A role can sit in the News and Media Division, support a multilingual project, work from an information centre or develop country-level communication. Note the stated language requirements, medium, target audience and work arrangement. Your application should show that you can deliver the particular communication product required, not merely that you are interested in communications.

Select **Apply** in the official listing to access Inspira. Create an account if necessary and complete the **My Profile** fields. Keep your education, employment history, language skills and contact information accurate. The profile may be reused for future UN Secretariat roles, but each DGC application must be revised to reflect the specific vacancy and communication context.

Complete the online application with achievements that demonstrate relevant reporting, editing, campaign, social-media, audiovisual, web or stakeholder-engagement work. Explain the audience, objective, evidence of reach or impact, and your individual contribution. Do not rely on a generic portfolio statement: a CV, website or work samples do not replace the online application unless the notice requests them.

Review all information and answers before submitting. A submitted Inspira application cannot be changed for that job opening. Save the confirmation and monitor the primary email linked to your account. Keep your examples accurate and attributable, especially where they concern public information, editorial work or communications produced for another organization.

Candidates whose qualifications fit may be invited to a written test, editing or content exercise, recorded video interview, work sample, assessment-centre exercise or panel interview. The method depends on the post. Prepare examples that show factual accuracy, concise writing, audience awareness, sound judgement, collaboration and the ability to communicate sensitive issues responsibly.
