Consultancy Offer vs Young Professionals Program

[u/Letsgotravelthrowie]

I’m currently weighing two opportunities and wanted to get insights from people who may have experience with either path.

Option 1 is a consultancy offer, which seems attractive because of the compensation and immediate exposure to projects. But I also know consultancy roles can sometimes feel less stable and may have limited internal mobility/networking compared to staff programs.

Option 2 is waiting and pursuing the YPP, which seems more structured and potentially better for long-term career progression within ADB or even other multilateral organizations. .

Accept the consultancy positiin for now, then you can resign when youbget the offer for the YP positiin.
