I applied through university. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at UNDP (Tbilisi) in Jun 2012
Interview
Well....kinda awkward. I had been given a grant from my master's program, and thought the internship was all set up. I flew to Tbilisi for my first day (from Chicago) for 3+ months, but when I got there, I was actually interviewed again. I was given a position, but another candidate flew there understanding he was an intern (through the same process), but he was interviewed and not given a position.
