Employer Brand...When Making Layoffs? 2022 was not meant to be like this. Coming into the year, we had the expectation of a strong economic rebound after the covid induced slowdown of two years previous. And yet, 6 months in we are are seeing conflict, inflation, public sector strikes, social conflict, crypto crashes and yes....looming recession. What do we need to know as EB / TA professionals in these circumstances - can we even do our jobs in these conditions? - Is EB the first to go when employers are no longer recruiting? - What role does EB / TA play when hiring freeze and layoffs are happening? - How can we become indispensable when core function is not being performed? - What role do we have to play in internal / external messenging? - What do we do if we are still hiring in one area, whilst making lay offs in another? - How do we manage brand when the number of disappointed ex-employees goes up? All this and more with w/ Will Staney, Founder (ProActive Talent), Alex Her, Manager Employer Brand (GoDaddy), Natasha Nagra, Talent Director (Valor Hospitality Partners) Ep162 is sponsored by our buddies SparcStart Employee generated video is the most cost-effective and credible way to keep your brand in front of candidates.

But you leave an impression with 100% of those people.” ~Adam Conrad● “There are going to be a bunch of companies that will successfully go on-premise only. They will basically be trading their ability to retain and recruit staff for what they get on-premise.” ~Hung Lee● “What people don’t realize about social media is that it’s a conversation.” ~Jamie Beaumont● “As you put content out [on LinkedIn], you start to see people checking out your profile. The biggest ROI that you’re going to see is more profile views and potential DMs.” ~Joel Lalgee● “What’s absolutely critical if you’re going to start getting more of the right people with the right qualifications responding to your ads or your InMails or your social media posts, is you’ve got to immediately tell your reader what’s in it for them.” ~Mitch Sullivan● “What I’m seeing—and this pandemic has brought it on, too—is this humanization of company brands overall.” ~Will Staney● “I think fixing work is an inside-out job.” ~Laurie Ruettimann● “A sourcer has to have a good online brand, […] is brilliant at identifying talent, [...] and is a wordsmith.” ~Vanessa Raath● “There are a couple of [great automation tools] out there: MyRobotWorks, Machine Sourcer, as well as Phantombuster are some of my top suggestions.” ~Jonathan Kidder● “Making the hire is not the endgame. [...] Where most search firms’ roles end at the placement, that’s where ours really begins.” ~Mike Myatt● “We want to work with clients and candidates on chasing down those lions that they’re facing in their career or in their business.” ~John Randolph● “When people ask, ‘What is the one thing I could change that would help me get better responses?” it’s, ‘Stop writing shitty emails!’” ~Mike “Batman” Cohen● “Think of how you feel when you’ve gotten a communication that was clearly for you [...] and how different

This episode is an official COVID post-mortem. We’re 90 days out from the pandemic which brought the world of work to a screeching halt—and set a new standard for accelerated change in human capital management. I've called on two longtime friends and respected experts in the world of work to help me unpack it all: Mark Stelzner, Founder and Managing Principal of IA and Will Staney, Founder and CEO of Proactive Talent. They’re both on my shortlist of people to call when I need to think through complex challenges talent leaders are facing—and I don’t know if there’s ever been a challenge as complex as COVID-19. In our conversation today: We talk about their experiences as consultants and as CEOs as they navigated the first 30 days of impact. We talk about how fast things moved, what they learned, and how they’ve put it to work for themselves and their clients. We talk about what the future holds for HR—not the new normal… a better normal. This episode is packed with insightful tidbits, even if my audio sounds a little off throughout. If you can look past that, I think you’ll find some seriously compelling stuff. Dig in, fam!
