Nice podcast! A good employer brand is part “consumer brand” and part “employer value proposition.” Strong brands i.e. Coke, Apple, still find they have to invest heavly in their “consumer brand,” “good employer” invest as well in the employer brand. Testimonials, blogs, quotes, stories, video, podcasts, etc with employees that can “TELL THE TRUTH WELL TOLD” are key to the employer brand!
