What is Employer Branding? • Builds a unique employer identity, differentiating itself from the competitors • Specific to employment, characterizing the firm’s identity as an employer • Directed at both internal and external audiences • Projects employer’s image and brand to existing and prospective staff as a desirable place to work (Backhaus and Tikoo, 2004)
Employer Branding is a Three-Step Process • Develop the value proposition • Market the value proposition • Market the internal employer brand (Backhaus and Tikoo, 2004)
What is ERP? • Employees recommend qualified friends, relatives or colleagues for job openings. • If the lead is hired, then the recommender is rewarded. (Gaumond, 2006)
