Non-Governmental Organisations

This section includes information on many organisations that IR students tend to like the sound of working for...but remember that is only likely to be possible if you demonstrate prior commitment through membership and volunteering. And when you finally do get the job you’ll probably be on a half or a fifth of what others in your graduating cohort. If it’s what you want to do, go ahead, but do so with your eyes open and with experience...
