  • Employee Focus: The heart of your brand, Their experiences humanize your brand and showcase the diverse talent you possess.
  • Storytelling Power: Craft compelling narratives that connect with people emotionally. Videos excel at this, allowing you to communicate complex topics in a short, engaging format

These elements form the foundation of impactful employer branding content. In the next section, we’ll delve into how video specifically can elevate your employer brand.

Elevating Your Employer Brand: Authenticity in Action

Building a strong employer brand is a crucial first step, but true elevation comes from living your company’s values and brand promise every day. This authenticity resonates with potential hires and sets the stage for effective elevation strategies. There are three key ingredients to elevate your brand:

  1. Consistency: Speak with one voice across all platforms – your employer brand is a unified message.
  2. Constant Engagement: Share your stories and views consistently – foster a two-way conversation with potential hires.
  3. Care to be present at key moments: Show up at various events, share what you feel, think and do during key global events that impact people.

Videos: The Storytelling Powerhouse for Employer Branding

As discussed earlier, building a strong employer brand relies on authenticity and compelling storytelling (Section 1). This is where videos excel. They allow you to showcase the real people behind your brand – think employee testimonials! – breathe life into your company culture, and share genuine stories that resonate with potential hires.

Remember the importance of consistent messaging across platforms (Section 2)? Videos excel at this too! A well-crafted video style can be seamlessly replicated across social media platforms and your career page, creating a unified and impactful brand image.

And let’s not forget efficiency! Studies show videos are 8x more effective than text at capturing attention (bonus point: short attention spans!).

By leveraging video, you can combine the power of storytelling, authenticity, and consistency – all key ingredients for a successful employer brand strategy.  

However, there are a few barriers to creating a consistent stream of video content that AI helps you overcome. Let’s see how AI tackles these challenges:

Challenges in Creating a Consistent Stream of Videos

While videos are undeniably powerful for employer branding, creating a steady stream of high-quality content can present hurdles.

  • Time Constraints: Scriptwriting, filming, and editing can be a slow process, making it difficult to keep up with a consistent content flow.
  • Lack of expertise: Not all companies have resources to produce videos,  limiting their ability to consistently engage audiences with video content.
  • Idea Fatigue: Coming up with fresh and engaging video ideas on a regular basis can be challenging.
