-: For a new hire at the UN,
I would say it's really important to ask a lot of questions,
and get to know the culture, and be patient.
You know, sometimes new hires, young people,
come to the UN from the private sector, say,
and they're surprised and a little disappointed
at certain elements of our culture, that it's slow moving.
It is very hierarchical,
it's more of a government type setting, but it's not,
it's international, and there's certain dos and don'ts
that you only learn about after being there a while.
So, if you're new, and young,
you can hit the ground running,
but ask a lot of questions and take it all in,
sometimes before acting quickly.
