We believe that if companies and people as individuals know the best fit for themselves, then matching them together is easy. An effective employer brand should be the number one priority of every competitive business because the people behind your brand are your competitive advantage. The experiences and the feelings you create are the measurements of who you are as an organisation and this goes way, way beyond the candidate experience. This is your employer brand experience. During this session we’ll cover: • The process we follow to develop a strategic employer brand and EVP to help you stand out • What we’ve learned from working with some of the biggest global brands • How to go about uncovering your employee’s insights and human’s truths • Turning your employer brand and EVP into activation and how to keep it alive

If you received your message what would you do with it? Do you even ponder this before you hit send or leave your voicemail? Tech has given recruiters all of these tools to spam candidates in 100 different ways, but if just sending a message worked we wouldn’t be seeing such a drop in response rates. So why is it happening? Why is candidate ghosting now a thing? In this session you’ll discover: • How candidates have turned the tables and why it’s costing you that great hire • What you can do to improve your response rates and attract candidates more effectively • How to stop candidate ghosting!

Join Farrah Beveridge, RSM UK to hear how adopting a strengths-based approach to assessment & selection can benefit both candidates and employers. It is increasingly evident that some of the more traditional assessment approaches can sometimes provide insufficient insight into the applicants suitability for the role and often deliver an uninspiring experience for both the employer and the candidate. In this session, Capp will share some of the benefits of leveraging a strengths-based assessment model and making use of the latest talent technology: • How to enable companies to discover and measure what matters most • How to provide applicants with an authentic insight into the role and working environment • How to identify candidates who will not just be able to do the job, but will love doing it • How to empower candidates at any stage of their career and the organisations they work for to really thrive
