Back-to-Back CandE Winners: EchoStar Recognized for Seamless Candidate Experience

From the first view of a job description through onboarding for your first day, we believe every candidate deserves the best possible experience. We are proud to announce EchoStar has been recognized as a 2026 Candidate Experience Award Winner for both North America and the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, for the second year in a row!

Behind the Numbers

The Survale Candidate Experience (CandE) Benchmark Research and Awards Program is the first program of its kind focused on the elevation and promotion of a quality candidate experience. This unique award is driven by data, based on what our candidates have to say about their journey with us.
