Definition of Employer Branding 1

An Employer Brand is the set of associations that potential and current employees have about you as a place to work

Employer Branding is Different from Recruiting

• EB= Intangible

• Long term, companies do EB even in periods when they are not recruiting

• It is done externally and should be done even more so internally

• Aim is to keep their image constant even in times of low recruitment

• Recruiting=Tangible

• Temporary, demand-driven HR activities

• Successful recruiting depends on a solid Employer Branding base and a correct perception of the brand and what it offers

Employer Value Proposition (EVP)

A set of offerings to current and potential employees that differentiate it from Recruitment Competitors and answers the question “what is in it for me”

• 44% of organizations said they have a clear Employer Value Proposition but it can be developed

further

• 33% believe their Employer Value Proposition is clear and effective

• 19% is working on it

Are They Really So Different?

“A 60-something graduate recently reflected: ‘We wanted what they want. We just felt we

couldn’t ask.’ Herein lies the truth: what young workers want isn’t so different from

what everyone else wants. However, young workers are asking for it.”

<<Karen Cates and Kimia Rahimi, “Mastering People Management”>>

They are graduating from college in record numbers…

They will be applying to your company until 2024

They have VERY different traits from the last set of candidates you met (GenExers, Baby Boomers)

They are rewriting the rules… and there is change in the air…

The Future is Now! What to ask yourself…

How will you manage expectations for advancement?

What can you do to develop and encourage leadership and responsible risk-taking?

Can your corporate culture balance their need for structure and your need for highly motivated self-starters with commitment?

Are you prepared and able to provide supervisory support and mentoring?
