  • Brand Loyalty is Key in Talent Attraction

    Engage future employees before the recruitment cycle. Approach talent attraction as consumer brands approach product launches; building interest and momentum and engaging audiences with content most meaningful to them.

    @JWTINSIDE #INSIDEinsights

    Fight competitors for candidates mindshare, heartshare, and loyalty.

    Fortune Magazine, 2015

  • Our Point of View

    Building a brand following and converting them to candidates is a long game. Apply this thinking to how you segment and prioritize education of prospects, engagement with them and ultimately - recruitment.

    @JWTINSIDE #INSIDEinsights

  • The Consumer WayEarn loyal customers by letting them into the tent. Showcase leadership and their vision for the future. Publicize social and business impact. Showcase sustainability, diversity, global initiatives. Leverage existing customer base to sell and endorse future products.

    @JWTINSIDE #INSIDEinsights

    You cannot have a strong consumer brand anymore without having a strong employer brand. Your consumers are your candidates and vice-versa. What one says will impact the other.

    -Amy Schultz, LinkedIn

  • @JWTINSIDE #INSIDEinsights

    In the past, employees valued opportunity, compensation, and security. Today, millennials occupy a larger percentage

    of the workforce and are overwhelmingly attracted to companies that are perceived as strongly invested in their

    personal overall growth and career development.

    Having the ability to see and hear more information about the company leaders and their stories plays a

    huge part in a candidates decision making. The biggest learning has been that everybody plays a

    part in talent branding.

    LinkedIn, Fortune 2015

  • What to Consider Before You BeginEven the most notable and well-known brands cant afford to go dark in todays competitive talent landscape. A perfect strategy executed poorly puts you back at square one.

    @JWTINSIDE #INSIDEinsights

    One of the biggest challenges for TA/HR teams is perception that more money equals greater impact. Reality shows us that having a good strategy, executed in a meaningful way, will earn internal support for TA initiatives and can translate into dollars, collaboration and a shared commitment to amplifying your brand presence.

  • GEs Approach

    @JWTINSIDE #INSIDEinsights

    In an effort to dismantle myths that GE is still only a manufacturing company, in 2015 they launched an ad campaign that aims to entice technology-savvy millennials to join them all while promoting their products.

    Marketing + HR = GENIUS!
