Hunter Grad Mekaj Daniels Selected for UN Young Professionals Program

Mekaj Daniels, who graduated from Hunter College in January 2017 with a BA/MA in Economics, recently took the exam for the UN Young Professionals Program (YPP), and was among the fewer than 100 selected from approximately 40,000 applicants for admission to the prestigious program. According to PassBlue, "an independent, women-led digital publication offering in-depth journalism on the US-UN relationship," the Young Professionals Program "offers people no older than 32 an alternative way of working  for the UN, bypassing the traditional track of submitting a resume through Inspira, the UN’s online recruitment system. The YPP is particularly helpful for those who have not accrued the five years of professional work experience that are required for P3 entry-level jobs, the lowest rung for which the UN recruits from the outside."
