Everything Recruiters Need To Know About Online Marketing

Last year alone, employers spent an estimated 8.9 billion (or a whopping 3.2% of all total revenues) on “employer branding” related activities, an overwhelming majority of which is spent online. 

But although 92% of employers report doing some form of online employer branding or recruitment advertising, only 14% of those organizations report having a defined employer brand strategy in place.

Building a successful strategy takes more than just a great brand and a great culture – it takes knowing the fundamentals of online marketing and how user experience, visual imagery and killer content translate to talent acquisition – and likely, your next hire.
