Attracting A-Players With Your Story

Workplace Application:  Learn how to identify your unique brand story and use it to attract and hire qualified people.

 Session Overview:   Every company has a unique story and compelling reasons for why you should work there. It's a feeling you get when you walk into work. Trust among peers. It's your best recruitment strategy.

 Often, we look to best-in-class case studies to see how others are translating their stories. But here's a harsh reality. Best-in-class does not mean best for you. The right candidate won't react to just any interaction - they want to connect with who you are. There's a new standard of excellence among these high-demand people. You'll learn the rules for standing out in a world of look-a-likes and brands that only claim to be different.

 Learning Objectives:

•  Be Human Yourself – Remember what it feels like to love work and learn how to translate your culture and passion into compelling content that attracts a diverse candidate pool.

• Getting Unstuck – How to turn content into solutions for business KPI’s. 
• Create Curiosity – Translate your story into candidate demand throughout every candidate touchpoint from emails to the career website and job posts. 
• Invest in Storytelling – Develop relationships with employees at all levels of the organization through storytelling. Learn what questions to ask and why. 
• Define the Difference – Learn how to dial into your unique advantages and improve your candidate communications.
