Employer Brand Basics

How do I prioritize employer brand work with limited time?

Short Answer

Start where conversion is leaking most in priority roles: ship small, reusable assets, measure, then expand.

Long Answer

Pick 1–2 priority role families tied to growth. Identify the biggest funnel leak (low replies, low apply quality, offer declines, slow time-to-fill). Ship the smallest assets that address it: role narrative + proof points + templates (JD, outreach, close talk track). Train the few people who touch the most candidates (top recruiters, key managers). Measure weekly and iterate. Once you see lift, scale templates and proof collection across more roles. Limited time favors focus, shipping, and measurement: the core of becoming choosable.

When you take a fresh approach to employer branding, more as a business driver than an application generator, as a way to make your differentiated value shine rather than as a bumper sticker, amazing things can happen.
