How do people manage to get KWS Jobs (Kenya Wildlife Service Jobs?)

I think most of Kenya Wildlife Service jobs are advertised in the media, and people proceed to apply from there. But I have also heard of cases where, for instance, people just present themselves in person during the Kenya Wildlife Service game warder recruitment exercises, and earn themselves jobs that way. There was actually a time when the Kenya Wildlife Service recruitment exercise became controversial, after it became clear that only folks with lower grades (was it D- and E?) were being recruited, with I think folks who had anything above D plain being told that they were overqualified! But then the KWS management came out strongly in defence of that policy, arguing that folks with higher grades would end up starting to look for other opportunities after having been trained at a huge cost... I don’t know if that policy is still there, though the KWS warders of these days seem to be relatively well trained, educated and enlightened.

What I know for fact is that there is a 'careers' page on the Kenya Wildlife Society website, which folks who are looking for KWS jobs ought to make a habit of visiting regularly, as some jobs are advertised there. What I also know for fact is that KWS jobs are often advertised in the media, including the Daily Nation and Standard. And yet another fact I know for sure is that it helps to network with individuals who have successfully managed to get KWS jobs (both current and former KWS employees) especially if they happen to be friends or relatives, so that they can explain to you how the system actually works, as far as recruitment goes.
