In both cases, GDN usually provides staff with short-term contracts, typically lasting around three years, or the duration of the program, unless otherwise stated. GDN contracts are renewable based on good performance, and the availability of funds. GDN also recruits interns in each category, from time to time.
GDN is committed to promoting a diverse workplace. GDN also encourages women and internal candidates to apply for vacancies and develop their career path. Applicants are shortlisted, and eventually selected, based on their ability to do the job, which is judged through an interview process, reference checks and sometimes, a written test.
