Employer brand is the perception and identity of an organisation as an employer. It plays a crucial role in recruiting talent, employee retention, and even customer attraction. Here are ten strategies we recommend to help you create a strong employer brand and reputation in the market: 1️⃣ Develop an Enviable Employer Value Proposition (EVP): Understand, document and highlight what makes your organisation an employer of choice. Then clearly communicate this during the recruitment process and in your marketing. 2️⃣ Embrace Transparent Recruitment: Offer honest feedback and maintain integrity throughout the recruitment process, whether a candidate is successful or not. 3️⃣ Ensure Positive Exits: Treat departing employees with care and respect. Your offboarding process will affect your employer's brand and reputation. 4️⃣ Cultivate a Positive Employer Brand on Social Media: Share your culture on social media. Showcase staff events, employee testimonials, community engagement and company achievements across your social media platforms. 5️⃣ Ask for feedback: Knowledge is power. Continually check in with employees or potential employees to find out what they are looking for and how you can accommodate them. 6️⃣ Cultivate a Respectful Culture: Foster an environment of respect, safety, and inclusivity, ensuring everyone feels valued. 7️⃣ Foster Belonging: Create a community where employees feel a genuine sense of belonging, promoting collaboration and celebrating diversity. 8️⃣ Invest in Employee Development: Provide training, mentorship, and advancement opportunities, demonstrating your commitment to employee growth and success. 9️⃣ Foster Diversity and Inclusion: Create a workplace culture where everyone feels valued and empowered to be their authentic selves. πŸ”Ÿ Manage Online Reputation: Regularly solicit feedback and address any concerns promptly to maintain a positive employer brand reputation.

Life's too short to be unhappy at work. Did you know that, on average, people spend 30% of their lives at work? That's far too much time to spend in a job that doesn’t fulfill you or in an environment you don’t like. While it’s unrealistic to expect every day at work to be amazing—there will always be ups and downs— however, if your Sunday nights are filled with anxiety and your Monday mornings with dread, it might be time to consider a change. Imagine waking up excited for the day ahead, feeling valued and inspired by what you do. You deserve a career that fulfills and energizes you. I see firsthand the positive impact a new environment, job, or culture can have on our candidates. If you are a legal or accounting professional ready for a change, get in contact with me today at monica@connectedpeople.com.au Let's find a role that brings you joy and fulfillment. #LegalRecruitment #AccountingRecruitment #jobsatisfaction
Giving back to the local community is one of the key values at Connected People. On Friday, I had the privilege of volunteering for the @hunterbcf - Hunter Breast Cancer Foundation at @divasonthegreen . As a team, we successfully raised thousands of dollars for this incredible charity. It was inspiring to see the dedication and hard work put in by Michelle Faithfull and everyone involved. Hearing personal stories from those impacted by breast cancer underscored the importance of the foundation’s work in our community. I'm grateful for the opportunity to contribute to such a meaningful cause. #VolunteerWork #CommunitySupport #BreastCancerAwareness #giveback
I don't accept written reference checks, and here's why: As a seasoned recruiter, I've found that verbal reference checks offer unparalleled advantages in thoroughly evaluating candidates. While written references have their merits, I strongly believe in the power of direct conversation. Here’s why: 1️⃣ Unveiling Authenticity: Verbal exchanges allow me to gauge the referee's candour and authenticity, ensuring the feedback is genuine and unfiltered. 2️⃣ Probing with Precision: Through real-time dialogue, I can ask insightful follow-up questions, uncovering valuable details and nuances about a candidate's strengths, growth areas, and cultural fit. Additionally, I can discern any slight hesitation or moments of silence, indicating areas that require further exploration. 3️⃣ Building Rapport: Establishing a personal connection fosters trust and encourages open and honest communication, leading to richer and more meaningful insights. 4️⃣ Clarifying in the Moment: If any aspect of the feedback requires clarification, I can address it immediately, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the candidate's potential. 5️⃣ Gaining Contextual Insights: References aren’t just to evaluate if the candidate should be hired or not; they are also a valuable tool to uncover and understand a candidate's work style, motivations, and ideal environments, enabling me to better support their success within an organisation. This information often surfaces during candid conversations during a reference check and could be easily missed if relying solely on written references. 6️⃣ Tailoring the Conversation: I can ask the specific questions I want to know rather than being restricted by what has been written on a prepared reference check. With verbal reference checks, I can make well-informed hiring decisions that benefit both the candidate and the company. It sets the stage for successful long-term placements and career success. #RecruitmentExcellence #TalentAcquisition #HiringSuccess

Are you getting ready for an important interview? One of the common queries I receive from candidates is about the questions they should ask the employer during the interview. My response is simple: ask what you need to know to feel confident about moving forward with the role. Remember, an interview is not just an opportunity for the employer to evaluate you; it's also your chance to assess if the company and the position align with your career goals and values. It's a two-way street where both parties are determining their compatibility. Here are a few questions I recommend asking during your interview. If you're a legal or accounting professional on the search for a new role and would like some support, I would love to help you secure your new position.
