Hello upscale-ga,
One of your other questions mentions that you?re a recent graduate. I
suggest that you contact your school?s career center as a first step
in your career search. They should have lots of resources available
for helping current students and recent alumns. They should also be
able to give you insights and advice about what careers graduates in
your major have embarked on.
As you requested, I?ve located information for you about applying to
UNESCO and UNICEF. These organizations have excellent web pages that
give you all you need to know about pursuing a career with them. In
addition, I?ve also collected some resources for exploring
international jobs and jobs for Political Science majors. Exploring
these links should give you a good start on getting a clearer focus on
how to approach your job search.
Best wishes for an international career.
