3HOW TO ATTRACT PASSIVE TALENT WITH EMPLOYER BRANDING
Passive job seekers are individuals who are currently employed and not actively looking for a new job, who may be open to a good career opportunity if one came along.
These “not looking” candidates are a treasure trove of talent and skills - but employers and recruiters have to work twice as hard to get their attention. In fact, the vast majority of professionals fall under the purview of passive job seekers.
Though more difficult to attract, passive job seekers far more valuable, are more likely to succeed, more likely to stay at your company longer, and more likely to become company evangelists.
While there are many strategies that can be employed in order to attract passive talent, employer branding sits alone as a tool that is efficiently deployed and managed by an HR department.
This eBook will highlight the value of passive talent and why employer branding is such an effective way to attract this kind of talent.

The process facilitates the company’s ability in attracting, recruiting and retaining ideal employees – referred to as Top Talent in recruitment – and helps secure the achievement of the company’s business plan.
