Let’s Talk Career Site

Once upon a time…

• Provided basic information about the

company and our jobs (primarily MT,

Intern and Other)

• Consisted of stand-alone content

• Offered limited insight into the vast and

varied world of EHI

• Told the story very much from “our”

point of view

C O N T E N T S T R A T E G Y

This is what we started with…

Then we had an new website…or rather, multiple websites

Clearly some clarity was called for to cut through the confusion

We discovered what candidates want

Let’s Talk Media

Once upon a time…

• Posting on job boards

• Company structure dictated a large

investment and lots of postings

• Inconsistent branding

• Started to measure KPI of CPH; but did

not set expectation, just awareness

M E D I A S T R A T E G Y

Media evolution

The happilyever after

• Measuring hires and CPH to position

results for the position the posting was

promoting

• Looking at products individually, eg.

banner ad vs job posting

• Continuing to measure KPIs – now app

to hire, cost per MT hire and percent of

MT hires

• FY18 media plan shift, setting

benchmarks with medias, providing

transparency to our data

M E D I A S T R A T E G Y

Media Investments

Methodology for Media Goals

• 2017 – the first year PPC was

a majority investment as part of

the MT hiring initiative

• Goals were set in regards to

MT hire volume as well as

cost-per-hire efficiency

• Monthly reviews with vendors

to strong performance and

improvements where necessary

• FY17 data fed directly into setting

FY18 considerations and goals

• All of this is with the idea that

we will run the same set-up as

the previous year, and should

maintain the same (if not improve)

performance

Let’s Talk Social

started to define our strategy

In Conclusion

• Never stop trying to evolve – however

minor

• Adopt an always-on strategy across

every space you play in

• Measure what matters: work throughout

your organization to define priorities,

then once results start coming in you

can confidently add or remove

• Show (don’t tell) what is authentic to

you, and don’t force it. A great story will

always unfold naturally
