In recent years, employment branding has become the move. I love seeing countless posts around the topic and the lively discussions at conferences around the world. The message is now out there for companies as to why it’s so important to invest in your employer brand. The problem: the how. Now, companies know why it’s important, but most have no clue as to how to get started.

A job interview is a two-way street. While you’re evaluating candidates to find the best fit for your job and culture, those candidates are evaluating you. Job candidates look at everything from how you’re dressed to who’s present at the interview to the work environment to determine if you’re a fit for them. A job interview often serves as a candidate’s first impression of your brand and culture — and you don’t get a second chance to make a good first impression.

The most recent batch of unemployment rates were released on June 8th. Do you know what they said? If you’re recruiting people, you should. While a strong indicator of the current state of the economy, unemployment rates should also dictate your hiring process. The best way to ensure your organization is equipped to benefit regardless of what the unemployment numbers say is to ensure your talent acquisition process is equipped to succeed.

I’m impressed when a candidate: Does their research and asks thoughtful questions. A candidate who is interested in an opportunity will want to do all the research necessary to find the right company for them – it’s like Googling a subject you want to learn more about. Before you know it, you look up, with glassed eyes, and realize you went through a rabbit hole of information hours ago.

HR Compliance is like a giant game of whack-a-mole. Once you think your company is compliant with all policies and procedures documented and in place, there’s a new or amended law, regulation, or final rule that pops up landing you back at ‘start.’ There are shifts, interpretations, and balancing acts to understanding compliance changes. Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

We all know it’s futile to try to manage what we don’t measure, but many leaders fail to properly measure a critical part of their business: the hiring function. High-performing employees are to the organization as oxygen is to the human body. If your company doesn’t bring enough in, it’s going to suffocate, slowly and painfully. That’s why I believe that even in larger companies, the CEO should play a direct role in attracting and retaining top talent.
