An employer brand

After spending two years learning the inner processes, setting up and optimizing PPC ads in the company, I was able to take one step forward as a marketing manager. My main goal was still to gain as many job applicants as possible, but now it meant holistic HR marketing and employer branding. Not only PPC advertising but also social media management, e-mail marketing, website management and development, video and radio campaigns, online, direct and promotional materials for job fairs and internal materials.

Brand management and HR marketing:

PPC advertising​​

  • target: job applicants

  • strategy based on STDC framework: 

    • firstly show general ads about the company, its services, and that there is an opportunity to get employed - to gain brand awareness and website visits from a specific location

    • show ads to particular departments according to interests

    • retarget users with a set of job positions from a specific department according to previous website visits with a call to action - "see job position detail" or "see more job positions from the department"

    • retarget users with specific job positions according to previous website visits with a set of relevant benefits and call to action - "apply now"
