The Best-Kept Secret in Recruiting: Having a Strong Talent Brand For the average candidate weighing a job offer, perception is just as important as reality. Asked what most influences their decision to accept or decline a position, 56 percent of professionals said it's the company's "talent brand," according to a new LinkedIn survey of full-time employees and talent acquisition managers. A talent brand means a company's reputation among external candidates as a desirable place to work. For example, it's safe to say that Google has a really strong talent brand.

How to Tell a Great Story We tell stories to our coworkers and peers all the time — to persuade someone to support our project, to explain to an employee how he might improve, or to inspire a team that is facing challenges. It’s an essential skill, but what makes a compelling story in a business context? And how can you improve your ability to tell stories that persuade? What the Experts Say In our information-saturated age, business leaders “won’t be heard unless they’re telling stories,” says Nick Morgan, author of Power Cues and president and founder of Public Words, a communications consulting firm. “Facts and figures and all the rational things that we think are important in the business world actually don’t stick in our minds at all,” he says. But stories create “sticky” memories by attaching emotions to things that happen. Start with a message Every storytelling exercise should begin by asking: Who is my audience and what is the message I want to share with them? Principles to Remember Do: Don’t:
36 Visual Content Creation Tools the Pros Can't Live Without Content Marketing Predictions for Talent Acquisition in 2015 “2015 is the year content subsumes marketing and brands realize that content is the atomic particle of every aspect of marketing.” – Shane Snow, Contently It’s old hat to say that Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos defined “brand” as what people say about you when you aren’t in the room. But even if that’s true, Bezos has only identified the situation without prescribing a way of changing it. For talent acquisition professionals, this is doubly important as our prospects form impressions of our brands long before we can reach out to them. Which is why we’re so in love with content and content marketing. In many ways, 2013 and 2014 were when content marketing went from “interesting idea” to “useful tool” for talent acquisition. As 2015 approaches, no doubt you’re wondering what the future holds for content marketing within the talent acquisition space. Be Authentic We professional marketers can create (or in many cases, pay others to create) content that is pretty light on realism. Get Specific

3 Ways To Scale Your Content Marketing Content Marketing is all the rage, and deservedly so, as it can help you build your reputation and visibility online. For many publishers, though, the benefits do not come quickly enough. They try a few things, don’t see the immediate benefits, and then they stop. The problem is often that they don’t scale their efforts properly. Whatever it is that you do, there are going to be some people who know you. All of this is good, but ultimately, we want that group of people who know us and think highly of us to grow, and we want more and more different people citing our work. There are some very interesting social dynamics involved; so, let’s start by exploring what they are with three example scenarios:. Scenario 1: High Article Posting Frequency Imagine that Joan is a blogger that might consider citing your work, if she only knew about it, and she trusted you. Imagine three days later you publish another article, this time on a third-party website as a guest post. Summary
Facebook Rolls Out a Tool for Testing Ads With Control Groups Then One + Getty Images Facebook wants to show the world that its ads really work. Today, the social networking giant unveiled a new online tool that will allow advertisers across the globe to test the effectiveness of the ads they post to Facebook. The tool offers what Facebook calls “conversion lift” testing, and in essence, it’s a means of tracking the behavior of Facebook users—both online and off—after they’re exposed to particular ads. Facebook provides the data needed to track behavior online, while advertisers provide the in-store data needed to identify offline purchases. Facebook has long offered similar ways of tracking ad campaigns, and in an ad hoc way, it has even allowed advertisers to run conversion lift tests. “We’re trying to move the industry to think about honest measures—true assessments of ad impact,” Smallwood says.
