We’ll take our team meetings with a view like this any day! Our Ops team got out of the office and onto the Chicago River for a fun little summer team outing.

Candidate experience is more than the interview itself. Clear expectations, thoughtful conversations, and consistent communication all help candidates feel informed and excited about the opportunity. See below for a few tips and tricks.

Technical skills can show whether someone can do the work, but they’re only part of what makes someone successful on a team. Identifying the soft skills that matter most can help you ask more meaningful questions and make more informed hiring decisions. See below for a few ways.

The first interview doesn’t have to answer every question you have. It just needs to give you enough insight to determine the right next step. See below for a few ways to build a more focused interview process.

Technical skills are important, but how a candidate communicates, collaborates, and adapts can tell you just as much about how they’ll contribute to your team. Read the full blog here: https://lnkd.in/ggA-wbE7

A well-deserved shoutout to Jason for the dedication and support he brings to the candidates he works with, and to Shane for helping advocate along the way. We’re lucky to have you both on the KSA team! Congrats to their candidate on landing an exciting new opportunity!

Meeting your teammates in person is always a great time. Getting to go to Guadalajara during the World Cup festivities to meet them is even better! “What an incredible experience spending time with our Guadalajara team! It was so great to finally meet everyone in person after working together from afar. Beyond the meetings, getting to experience it through the eyes of our local team made the trip extra special. A huge thank you to everyone who welcomed us with such warmth and hospitality. We’re already looking forward to the next visit!” Samantha and Mallory from our KSA recruiting team

Once you work in telecom, you start noticing the infrastructure hiding in plain sight. Mallory spotted what looks like a water tank but it’s actually concealing a wireless cell site while traveling through Nevada, while Cassidy noticed 4 new small cell sites just a few blocks in Tampa. They may look completely different, but both play a role in supporting the connectivity we rely on every day. Behind each one are teams of engineers, project managers, permitting specialists, construction professionals, technicians, and many others bringing the network to life. That’s the world our KSA team works in every day – and apparently, it’s something they can’t help but notice wherever they go. 😉 Shoutout to Amy and Cassidy for sharing their expertise and showing how connectivity can hide in plain sight!

Nobody really sets out to become a telecom recruiter. It just sort of happens. “Most of us didn’t grow up dreaming about fiber optics or OSP construction. We found telecom through an unexpected opportunity and decided to give it a try. Then, somewhere along the way, we learned the industry, built strong relationships, and found a career we genuinely enjoy.” – Matt, Senior Recruiter. Meet the KSA team behind the placements!

An interview should help you understand more than just a candidate’s past experiences. It should also help show you how they might approach the role. Swipe to see a few ideas on how to start!
