Your Employer Brand is like a Tinder profile.
What about your organization is going to appeal to your ideal candidates and make them want to "swipe right" in a matter of seconds? In short, what makes you stand out from the crowd?
86% of job seekers look at an employer's brand before applying. With that high of a number affecting your bottom line and daily operations, employer branding is no longer a 'should', but a 'must'.
That’s where our talent management experts at Wicresoft can lend their knowledge and insight. Our approach is completely client-driven, meaning we adapt to your organization’s needs and budget.
Our Process
Competitor Analysis
First, Wicresoft looks to your competition. Our talent acquisition experts highlight the employee value proposition your company has over the competition. It's not just about keeping up with the competition but staying one step ahead.
Data Collection
Wicresoft reviews your online company reputation and exit survey data, hosts focus groups with current employees, and can even review and/or conduct surveys to gain direct employee feedback on the culture and environment within the organization.
Creative Execution
Once all the necessary data is collected and the plan is drawn out, creative execution can be developed. Humanizing the workplace by showing pictures of current employees, what day-to-day activities look like, and what new employees can look forward to, all help cultivate a clear picture to job seekers of what they can expect.
Brand Launch
Our experts present how and where the new employer brand will be presented and what metrics for success will be used. Most importantly, current employees will need to be told about the direction you’re headed while encouraging open and honest feedback allowing the current workforce to feel included and valued in the new endeavor.
Frequently
Asked
Questions
What is employer branding?
It’s important to note the very stark delineation between consumer branding and employer branding. Consumer branding is what is marketed towards the client or customer base about the product or service, while employee branding is the reputation of the work environment, or in other words, what is marketed towards potential candidates! While the two need to be aligned, they are not the same.
Establishing an employer brand allows the company to reach their ideal audience by giving a behind-the-scenes look at what an employee might do or experience on a daily basis, should they get a job with that company.
Why is employer branding important?
Every company has an employer brand whether they’re aware of it or not. Reviews by current or previous employees, company social media presence, and word-of-mouth recommendations all play into the existing employer brand. Taking control of the narrative allows the company to show the positive aspects of working with them and shine a light on what is important to them. Why does all of this matter? Recent studies have shown employer branding has a major impact on overall company numbers including retention, cost-per-hire, and more.
