Preferred Blur anyway

@SpareWill I know the answer to this

@HungLee Interesting! Remember some ads are now only 30 days as opposed to a classic 6 week ad...

@HungLee Something you did might have failed, but that doesn't make you a Failure. 🤩

@marketplunger1 This is cool - not that an exciting video game though!

[Brandon Beylo @marketplunger1]

This is how you solve the mining labor crisis.

Millions of Gen Z’ers playing video games all day can finally put that to good use.

Give them a joystick and $100K base salary. Can move rock from the comfort of their home.

Technology is amazing.

@Adam_W_Gordon Exactly my point, and the reasons it's a bad employer extended far deeper than a poor career site or brochure.

[Davethewave @Davethewave]

A bit controversial, but... Employer Branding campaigns are a myth and largely a waste of time...

Agree or no?

[Davethewave @Davethewave]

@Adam_W_Gordon @iCIMS @adway All this is spot on.
Where I'm coming from is when there is an employer branding brief designed to change the opinion of candidates about that particular company - this is what I dont believe can be achieved without high level boardroom commitment - and not just lip service.

[Davethewave @Davethewave]

Recruiters, ever get FOMO and wonder why some of your competitors are smashing it and you're only doing ok?

One reason is because they're measuring data, applications and where candidates are coming from. Are you?

[Davethewave @Davethewave]

@Adam_W_Gordon @iCIMS @adway But that's measuring performance of a candidate attraction campaign, which by the way, sounds great, and right up my street BUT... that's not necessarily changing the views of the jobseekers about a company...which is what employer branding is about.

[Davethewave @Davethewave]

@Adam_W_Gordon @iCIMS @adway The secret is in the measurement I guess isnt it. But who measures and over what time period?

[Davethewave @Davethewave]

@jamesswift Fair point, I suppose the answer is in the objective in the first place.

Lets start with - the objective is to become the 'Employer of choice' ...

My query is, what long term difference do most employer branding campaigns make?
