Employment Branding 101

Employer branding is taking the second step from your main brand and reworking a career brand- a brand that appeals to your employees and potential candidates.  This is the tactic a company can use to showcase how awesome their company is to attract the right talent!

As hiring becomes more competitive and with the growth of so many social media outlets, traditional employer branding approaches will have to be abandoned. Recruiting leaders will need to learn how to effectively measure employer brand strength and to identify the brand pillars that top candidates care most about.

In today’s fiercely competitive job market it’s all about standing out. We know that establishing and managing a consistent employer brand is a crucial key to recruiting top talent. We have a proven system that allows us to evaluate how a company’s doing.

A study shows that 80% of job seekers today will research an employer online before deciding whether to apply to a position there. When candidates don’t find enough information to convince them the company is worth the switch of jobs, they’ll pass.

In return, employment branding can be related to your consumers making a decision to use your service or purchase products from you by looking at your employment brand. If your company isn’t good enough to work for then why should they use your services or purchase products from you.
