Stay sharp recruiters/hiring managers! The job market is booming again as our economy is slowly but surely returning towards normalcy.

In order to entice high performers, you have to understand the psychology of how they think.

Oft times, they want to:

  • Work in growing brands with a clearly defined purpose
  • Create an impact on the world
  • Feel valued and appreciated

Great employees make your business thrive.

Thus, your strategies of attracting top talents require strong foundation that consist of the below 3 steps.

1. Create A Strong Online Brand & Leverage Digital Channels

Did you know 75% of candidates research a company’s reputation via social media/website before applying?

Hence, make sure your website and social media channels are active and well optimised, accurately reflecting your company culture & values, along with a clearly defined purpose that impacts the world. Also, share a clear picture of the job requirements, career opportunities, remuneration package, and applications steps.

Remember, talented people are more willing to work in a company that emanates a better culture that induces a flow of happiness and productivity (see Google, Apple, Nestle).

And they are definitely aware of their personal needs.

So if you establish what makes you different from your competitors and communicate your brand’s image well online , you will have a field day in attracting your dream candidates.
