Regarding the closing date of vacancy announcements and application submissions: (1) The closing date of a vacancy announcement is dynamic, and it reflects the time setting equivalent to 12 midnight in Geneva, Switzerland on your device. (2) If you save your application as a draft, you will exit the submission process, and your job submission will not be considered if it is not completed. (3) To ensure that your application is received before the closing date, we highly encourage you to plan accordingly, as waiting until the last hour may preclude you from successfully submitting your application. (4) after the closing date, you can no longer complete the job submission.
