General recruitment process

Application

You can apply directly for any of the open jobs published on our Apply now page. Alternatively, you can leave an open application in our global candidate database which we search when looking for certain types of skills or profiles.

Opportunities

Once you have completed and sent your online application you will receive an automatic email confirmation. A local HR and line manager will go through the applications and shortlist candidates for a KONE elevator interview. We may conduct several interview rounds before a final selection is made.

Final Selection

All applicants are contacted either by email or phone at the latest when the selection has been made. The duration of the KONE recruitment process may vary depending on different factors and for this reason, we are unable to give you an estimate as to how long it will take to receive the information on the final selection.

Application process to the KONE International Trainee Program (ITP)

Final Selection

The final selections are made by the hosting unit in April at the latest and all applicants will be contacted by email or phone.
