For most organizations, recruiting top talent is no piece of cake, but for the high-volume recruiters, it’s even more daunting.

What resources can you use to give you a leg up on your substantial task? We have a few insights to share:

Leverage your brand

“Your brand is the single most important investment you can make in your business.” (Steve Forbes) The same holds true when it comes to your investment in recruitment branding.

  • Promote your employment brand, relentlessly on all communications, including social: Glassdoor, LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, etc. Share both personal and professional experiences. It’s what connects us to our world.
  • Give people a reason to connect with your employment brand through all of your media channels—and they’ll share your organic, clever content with their friends and colleagues.
  • Be sure to promote your organization’s unique employment value proposition at every touchpoint with consistency in style, tone and messaging.

Your employment brand is key to communicating what it is like to work for your company – and why candidates should join you.

Budgets are thinner, and you have to be smarter in how to allocate your recruitment spend. This is the time of year when many HR professionals are budgeting for the next year and I’d like to give you some ideas on how best to approach the process.

So, where do you start?

Start by looking at the current year and your results. What has been working for you – and what has not? If you’ve had less-than-impressive results, what needs to change?
