About this Webinar

Seenit’s CEO, Emily Forbes, was joined by Helen Durkin, Senior Employer Brand Program Manager at Indeed.com, Adam Sunman, Global Employer Brand at Walgreens Boots Alliance, and Joey Price, CEO of Jumpstart:HR and host of the ‘Life, and Coffee’ podcast.

We discussed how covid-19 has impacted Employer Brand and changed priorities for talent attraction, what content is engaging talent, how to create authentic stories and the big no-no’s of Employer Brand.

Emily and our panel touched on the impact of covid-19 on Employer Brand priorities, what messages and content are attracting people most, and the big ‘no-no’s of Employer Brand.

Helen, Joey and Adam discussed shifts towards remote status, opportunities for learning and training, and diversity statements as crucial factors for talent attraction. Adam highlighted that the key to appeal to more and more people is “about finding those stories that make people think ‘wow, I want to be a part of that!’.

Not to worry if you missed the event. You can watch the webinar on-demand again here.

Be sure to tune in to our next webinar on Wednesday 27th October at 3 pm, where we will be joined by Kat Ogunsanwo, Senior Internal Communications and Employer Brand Manager at Camelot, and Raj Basani, Digital Content and Engagement Manager at Harrods.

We will be diving into company values and internal communications and how they can increase employee engagement and help to build strong Employer Brands. See you there!
