THE HUMAN ERA Being a Human Era brand goes beyond merely saying that one is more human. It requires an authentic story delivered consistently through an inspiring experience. It requires hard work establishing organizational values and commitments that are customer driven, while also driving them toward daily leadership decision-making and employee behaviors.

GET THIS DATA UNDER CONTROL

OVERVIEW: the following data is from over 100,000 respondents, both EMEA and Americas, but the data is clear that the same occurs on both continents. Companies that produce these behaviors score much higher on overall experience (3.5/5.0 or higher) and also above average on all experiences (except dismissal). Their net promotion score is 2X the average when these employment branding concepts are engaged:1. Use techniques to control the potential number of applicants per requisition to control over sourcing, especially in the professional level positions (reduce applications per role). This could mean stronger job posting language to create self-deselection, and also incorporation of assessment tools.2. Have fewer steps in the application process and make it expedient / much faster to execute; time it several times and THEN take out steps. 3. Consider making your career site and subsequent microsites core to all of your activities, and make that fact known inside your business and with candidates.4. Key communications need to occur from hiring manager, not recruiter (count how many occur and increase).

PLAN #5: #ItsanEventNotanInterview

Dear Ms. Burns,

..Ive never felt so welcome at a company and before coming to XYZ, I was intimidated to interview with any company. You made it so easy by letting us meet the team first. Regardless of the outcome, I will never forget my experience with XYZ. I hope to work with XYZ, but I am happy to now know exactly what type of people I want to work with and feel much more confident about any choices I make. Thank you for setting me up with my non-interview.

Sincerely, Candidate who joined 6/1/15
