Planning To Hire In 2022? Start Putting the Wheels In Motion Now

It may seem a little early to start thinking about 2022, but the reality is, it will be here before we know it. Business leaders are beginning to put plans in place for the new year, whether assessing budgets or preparing new strategies for success. It’s a great time to evaluate what’s working and what needs to change so that you can prepare for a change in the new year. A new year is a fresh start, so it’s a great excuse to experiment with new strategies in all business areas. And, with the dust finally beginning to settle on a few years of uncertainty, it’s becoming clear that now is the ideal time to adjust tactics and refine your business approach across all areas. So why should your recruitment strategy be any different? Here are some reasons why you should start putting the wheels in motion now so that your recruitment strategy is ready for 2022.

Turning up the volume: it’s time to get bold and loud with Employer Branding

Now everyone realises the importance of employer brand, it will take a lot more to stand out. Every business out there will claim to be a great employer. It would be stupid to say they aren’t if they wish to attract new talent. Plus, a lot of benefits like flexible working are now taken as standard. They’re not going to help you to stand out in the race for talent. Therefore, when it comes to communicating employer brands, companies who wish to attract the best talent will have to think outside of the box, tailor their messaging to resonate with the right talent and get loud with the aspects that make them unique.

How to navigate graduate hiring in a competitive market

With competition for talent fiercer than ever as we enter a candidate-driven market, many business leaders are realising that graduates could be the key to solving recruitment challenges. This means that this talent pool will soon be the target for many companies trying to fill essential skills gaps, and the graduates within it will quickly be snapped up. Therefore, graduate hiring is bound to see an uptake. However, to be ahead of the game and ensure that your scaling tech business can attract the best graduate talent, you need to have a strategic approach to hiring and tailor your talent acquisition efforts to this particular audience.

The Boston Boom Part Two: Brand Buy-In

As a startup founder, you may have come from the big tech scene to launch a business that capitalizes on the knowledge you have in the industry. But it can be an adjustment to adapt away from a world of “corporate colleagues” to developing a new network of fellow entrepreneurs and founders. This is where […]

Are hybrid businesses testing the psychology of work?

The idea of hybrid working is nothing new. In fact, it’s all many of us have been talking about for the last year. Some workers thrive in the office, whereas some work better in their own space with a bit of flexibility. We’re all different and find ourselves in different life situations. Therefore, for many […]

The Employer Branding Challenges We’ll Face in Hybrid Work

For a company to produce a happy, productive, and engaged workforce remotely, organisations will need to leverage an employer brand fit for 2021 and beyond. Your employer brand needs to satisfy basic psychological needs around purpose, impact, and belonging. A 2021 employer brand is all about balancing candidate expectations with the needs of the business. To promote a hybrid culture you need to consider all changing aspects of the business.

However, previously, the office has always been a central hub for company culture and your employer brand. It’s a physical space that represents your business and who you are. The office is where all employees can be together and bounce ideas around or even just have crucial watercooler conversations that make going to work so much more than a job. The office almost becomes a poster for your employer brand and with at least half of the team no longer working from it, this presents some huge challenges for employers.

As hybrid working is set to change the way we work and our attitudes towards the workplace, it’s also set to change the way we view employer brands and how employers can communicate them.

Is your candidate experience damaging your tech employer brand?

Tech recruitment is the most competitive it’s ever been, with employers in all industries fighting for candidates with identical skillsets. Digitally-led businesses are seeing a surge in demand for their services, which means they suddenly need to hire quickly to keep up. Other companies are looking to hire tech talent so that they can compete […]

Employer Branding: embracing the good, the bad and the ugly

When thinking about your employer brand as a tool to attract tech talent and stand out from the competition in the tech recruitment market, it’s natural to think about the positives. However, no employer in their right mind will promote the negative aspects of their employer brand as it’s a sure-fire way to deter tech […]
