ADB's Young Professionals
Program - Yearly
Want
to grow professionally by building on your training and experience? Want
to help improve the lives of people in Asia and the Pacific?
ADB's Young Professionals Program (YPP) recruits highly qualified and
motivated individuals to ADB. YPP provides the foundation for a
challenging and rewarding professional career in an international
development environment. YPP offers a range of opportunities to develop
professional skills and understanding of ADB's operations, policies and
procedures.
Young professionals (YPs) are offered a 2-year fixed-term appointment.
During this period they are expected to demonstrate competencies required
for the positions. The work assignments enable them to further develop
their expertise and broaden their perspective through exposure to various
aspects of ADB work. YPs may participate in
missions for activities in fact finding and appraisal, project review and
completion, country programming, sector and policy studies, or
disbursement.
YPs initially set up a developmental plan under the guidance of their
supervisors and human resources teams. In this plan, they identify
learning programs offered in ADB to enable them to improve their technical
skills and acquaint them with ADB policies and procedures.
ADB offers a compensation and benefits package that is internationally
competitive and comparable with other multilateral institutions. Salaries
are paid in US dollars and are tax-exempt, unless your government
determines that it is subject to taxation. You are also entitled to
housing, children's education subsidy, health care, insurance, home
country travel, and retirement benefits.
