🌟 The Rising Importance of an Authentic Employer Brand 🌟   A huge thank you to Claire de Souza and Alex Her, co founders of The EB Space, for speaking with us about employer branding and the challenges faced by those working in the employer branding space right now.   Key takeaways:   ⭐ A strong employer brand is critical for attracting and retaining top talent.    💡 Employer brand professionals often face tight budgets and a lack of executive buy-in. They need to be resourceful and align their goals with broader business objectives to get the support they need.   🚀 Go beyond vanity metrics like clicks and impressions. Instead, focus on KPIs like applicant quality, time to hire, and engagement data to showcase the real impact of employer branding.   Let's build employer brands that resonate, engage, and retain top talent!

🚀 A secure start: Pre-boarding strategies for Aerospace employers - our virtual Q&A with Simon Perry MBA (Head of HR at AWE), Lindsey Beer (HR Director at Thales) and hosted by our own Simon Reichwald (CPO at Connectr) is open for registrations. Extensive vetting procedures impact every person entering the business and the cost of reneges can be significantly higher than in other sectors. In the 45 minute virtual discussion, we'll be talking about managing the impacts of vetting and long waits while pre-boarding new talent and delivering a consistent employer brand image throughout the journey. Register now to get a chance to submit your questions to our speakers, or listen in on the discussion (or just to get the recording!): https://lnkd.in/ed3iCzKS #Aerospace #Preboarding #Reneges
