Welcome to Employer Brand Labs, where we're legally obligated to inform you that we're unhealthily obsessed with employer branding and we're dragging you down with us.

By reading this document, you have already agreed to everything in it. Sorry, that's just how we roll. Also, we've secretly implanted employer branding nanobots in your brain. They're harmless, except for the occasional urge to critique job descriptions at 3 AM.

001. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

By accessing this website, attending workshops, reading my books or even making accidental eye contact with me at a conference, you hereby agree to these Terms of Service. If you disagree with these terms, please close this tab immediately and go back to posting "we're hiring!" and publishing job descriptions that say "competitive salary" and "ping pong table" like it's 2010.

010. THE MILLION BRANDER MISSION

Employer Brand Labs has one singular, slightly unhinged mission: to create ONE MILLION employer brand thinkers by 2030. Yes, we know that's approximately 500 new employer branders per day. No, we haven't done the math on whether there are actually enough companies in the world to employ them all. That's Future Us's problem.

By using our services, you automatically become part of this mission whether you like it or not. You may find yourself involuntarily explaining "employer value propositions" to strangers at dinner parties. We accept no liability for the friends you will lose in this process.

011. WHAT WE DO (BESIDES SCARING INNOCENT HRBPS)

Our services include, but are not limited to:

  • Teaching you to say something more useful than "we have free snacks" without having to create a 127-slide employer brand deck
  • Showing you how to talk your CEO down from  their latest “TikTok dance craze to attract 'the youths'” idea 
  • Helping you explain to Finance why you need $20,000 for "employer brand vibes"
  • Providing alibis when your friends ask why you now photograph random office walls and call it "culture content"
  • Translating normal human job descriptions into something that won’t sap your will to live
  • Providing remote therapy to those who have to explain employer branding to their parents for the 37th time

FOUR. USER OBLIGATIONS

As a user of our services, you are obligated to:a) Use the phrase "differentiated value" at least 12 times in every employer branding meeting b) Take dramatic gasps when someone suggests using stock photography c) Develop an irrational hatred of generic job descriptions d) Become physically unable to look at your company's careers page without critiquing it e) Evangelize employer branding to at least 5 unwilling victims per quarter

Chanel No 5. CONTENT OWNERSHIP

Any employer branding ideas you have while showering, driving, or during boring meetings legally belong to Employer Brand Labs. We can't legally enforce this, but we'll know, and we'll be disappointed in you.

VI. ACCOUNT TERMINATION

We reserve the right to terminate your account if:

  • You refer to employer branding as "just recruiting marketing"
  • You suggest that "people just care about money"
  • You haven't changed your LinkedIn headline to include "Employer Brand Believer" within 30 days
  • You've never once stayed up until 2 AM worrying about your company's Glassdoor reviews

Lucky No 7. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

Employer Brand Labs cannot be held responsible for:

  • Your sudden inability to accept boring job postings
  • The existential crisis that occurs when you realize your company doesn't live up to the values it posts on the walls
  • The restraining order from your CEO after you followed them around with a camera for "authentic leadership content"
  • The financial impact of buying 18 different ring lights for your "day in the life" TikToks
  • Your sudden inability to enter any workplace without whispering "missed employer branding opportunity"
  • The fact that you now introduce yourself as "a talent attraction storytelling guru" at children's birthday parties

OU812. MODIFICATIONS TO TERMS

We may update these Terms of Service whenever we have a new employer branding epiphany, which happens approximately every 4.7 minutes. Updates will be communicated via humming, cryptic personal ads in your local free weekly paper, or passive-aggressive LinkedIn posts.

99.44. THE FINE PRINT NOBODY READS

By agreeing to these terms, you acknowledge that employer branding is not a fad, a trend, or "just HR stuff." It is a lifestyle, a religion, and eventually, your entire personality. Should you become the 1,000,000th employer brander we create, you will be required to accept a giant novelty check in a public ceremony and give a speech about how employer branding changed your life. How does the afternoon of the 23rd work for you?

🔟. SERIOUS BUSINESS (JUST THIS ONE SECTION)

For real though, behind all the jokes and hyperbole, Employer Brand Labs actually does believe that when organizations authentically showcase their true mission, working experience and reward structure, the world becomes a slightly better place. Our unhinged mission to create a million employer branders is our way of saying "maybe we should stop lying to job candidates and start building workplaces worth talking about." But don't tell anyone we said that—we have a reputation for nonsense to maintain.

ƖƖ. CONTACT INFORMATION

Questions about these terms should be sent to:

  • Email: legal@employerbrandlabs.com
  • Carrier pigeon: We have a hungry office cat, so choose wisely
  • Telepathically: We're working on this feature for Q3
  • Say something nice about me on LinkedIn

By continuing to use our services, you confirm that you've read these terms, you're laughing at our jokes (even the bad ones), and you're ready to join the employer brand revolution. May your EVP be strong and your candidate journey be frictionless.
