Employer Brand – is your recruitment partner protecting it?
In today’s market, the competition remains unprecedented, there are more qualified candidates than roles which means every candidate, whether hired or not forms a long lasting opinion of your business from how they’re treated.
When it’s your agency or search partner setting that tone, the way they communicate, manage expectations, and represent your leadership team reflects directly on your brand and reputation.
So, are they helping your business to maintain your employer brand, and are you both working together to improve when something hasn’t gone well?
Ask yourself:
❓ Are all candidates successful and unsuccessful getting timely, respectful communication?
❓ Is the process seamless, consistent, and transparent from start to finish?
❓ Do you know how your recruiter represents your culture, leadership, and values in every conversation?
❓ Are they balancing volume with care, making sure you don’t lose the best talent in the noise?
❓ Do they provide you with feedback on how your process is being received in the market?
❓ Are you surveying candidates (successful and unsuccessful) on how they felt about the process and your recruiter?
❓ Do they help you learn when something hasn’t gone well?
Your employer brand isn’t only built in campaigns or successful hires; it’s built in the experiences from everyone involved. The right partner safeguards that, protecting your reputation and helping you secure the best talent with a lasting impact.
