Building a pipeline of candidates by giving
Telenor wanted to discover the talent pool of tech & IT students in their own backyard. They wanted to provide value and have real conversations with their target group without selling themselves as an employer. The main objective was to establish an event that was engaging, fun and full of learning.
The case was very interesting. It provided us with hands on experience on how we could use our skills from our courses on a real world problem. Moreover, the conversations we had with Sylvester, Paludan and the other employees during the day, gave us a huge insight on how it is to work at Telenor.
We created an event that provided value for the students and awareness for Telenor
In today’s candidate market it’s essential to provide value without “selling” yourself as an employer. Therefore, we facilitated a case competition where students didn’t feel any pressure. They just worked with the things they loved with tips, tricks and insights from Telenor’s tech experts.
Telenor’s output:
- Increase of awareness
- Seen as experts in the field
- Building a pipeline of future hires
- Better understanding of the candidate market
- Meaningful interactions with the target group
What did Telenor have to say about the event
“It is important for Telenor to hold this case competition so that we can attract the wildest talents out there and show them that we are more than a SIM card factory. We get a feel for what kind of talent pool hides in our backyard, and we find out what makes Telenor interesting as a workplace for the students. Furthermore, we find out how we can make ourselves attractive.”
Sylvester, Team Lead – Tech Operation Center
