Essay from the year 2015 in the subject Business economics - Personnel and Organisation, grade: 1,0, University of Applied Sciences Nordhausen, language: English, abstract: In order to understand the International Employer Branding, the first task is to define the meaning of it and to clarify why the Employer Branding is so important for companies. On the one hand, the Employer Branding is a result of the increasing competitiveness on the labor market, called ‘war of talents’, and the search for experienced and professionalized employees. Especially the social developments are responsible for the difficulties which companies have. The demographic change in Germany leads to a shortage of the population and of the number of young people which are available on the labor market. Companies cannot influence this natural change but they do have an impact on their quality and corporate identity as an employer: This is where the Employer Branding takes place (Immerschitt, Stumpf: 2014, 1). Nowadays, people who are searching for a job are not only interested in an explicit job description, but also in the characteristics and values that a company represents. They ask themselves "What benefits is the employer able to offer?" or "What about the work-life balance?". This is why job descriptions are not only mentioning factors just as remuneration and working hours, but also the working environment and social factors. On the other hand, employers also have to find ways to bind existing employees to the company in the long run in order to protect themselves from a possible drain of know-how and from the costs of finding new employees. So by definition, the Employer Branding describes all active, strategic actions in order to make a company attractive to both existing and potential new employees. It is used to form a unique selling proposition (USP) to give an answer to the question why potential employees should decide to work in this specific company and not to prefer another one. Companies should create a brand as a good employer and advertise this brand on the labor market, where companies can be seen as products. Real marketing campaigns are also possible to gain the best employees by giving the audience the main arguments why the company differentiates from the others. Therefore, the employer should convey its norms, values and its identity.

The increasing globalization of business activities forces companies to recruit highly skilled employees all over the world. In order to attract these talents, employers have to differentiate themselves through a unique employer brand, appealing to diverse target audiences. However, in the absence of research on international students' preferences for employer characteristics, it is difficult for multinational companies to decide on a feasible degree of employer brand standardization. Lena Christians investigates the impact of between-country differences, such as in national culture or economic wealth, on students' preferences in relation to individual differences of students within the same country. In combination with a segmentation of the European graduate market, the results provide readers with inside on which elements of the employer value proposition are suitable for standardization in which target groups.

The culture an organisation cultivates as an employer is just as important to its success as the brand image of its products or services. A culture that is at odds with the organisation's commercial activities is a very powerful signal to customers, employees and other stakeholders; it is a signal that will impact on the employers' sales, market reputation, share value and their ability to attract and retain the kind of employees that they need. In fact, employer branding is a complex process that involves internal and external customers, marketing and human resource professionals. Helen Rosethorn's book puts the whole topic into context, it explores some of the shortcomings of employer branding initiatives to date and provides a practical guide to the kind of strategy and techniques organisations need to embrace in order to make the most of their employer brand. At the heart of the book is the concept of the strategic employee lifecycle and ways in which an organisation should engage with potential, current and past employees. The Employer Brand focuses on the experiences and perspectives of organisations that have applied employer brand practices. It is a book about marketing - and the relationship of customers and employees; about culture - and the need for fundamental change in the role of the human resources function; about psychology - and the changing aspirations of the next generation of employees; and about hard-nosed business - and the tangible and intangible benefits of a successful employer branding strategy and how to realize them.

If you want your business to grow, you need to be able to rely on your ability to hire talent reliably and consistently. No talent pipeline? No growth, and no business. But your recruiting team is drowning (I asked them). They need help. Now, if you ask recruiters, they will ask for headcount. Or more technology. But more bodies and more tools won't solve the issue (though it will eat up your budget). What you need a is a better strategy. And that strategy is called employer branding.Employer branding is about understanding, distilling and communicating what your company is all about in order to attract all the talent you need.

As a special bonus, we are including a handbook on how to work with recruiting teams. This hands-on workbook is chock full of examples, checklists, step-by-step instructions and even emails you can copy and paste to make things happen immediately.
