THE ESSENTIAL ROLE OF YOUR EVP AND HOW GET-OPTIMAL CAN HELP

October 13, 2023

In the ever-evolving recruitment and talent acquisition landscape, one concept is beginning to rise as a primary attractor - Employer Value Proposition (EVP). Whilst it might seem like another corporate buzzword, your EVP is a core part of your Job Adverts and can set you aside from other companies when attracting top talent.

What is EVP?

Your EVP represents the heart and soul of your company. It includes basics like compensation and other holistic factors like work culture, opportunities for growth, mental health support, well-being, environmental factors and gym benefits - everything your employee can access in exchange for their hard work. With workers bringing different expectations and behaviours to their search for a new role, the number of individuals looking for a purpose-driven company has soured.

This new wave of job seekers is emphatic about a company’s purpose. What it is, why it exists and what it stands for. As the global economic crisis escalates, it’s falling to employers to support mental health and wellbeing - and to think about their effects on the environment. Evidence suggests a 15% rise in employee satisfaction from expressing these in your job ad. It’s likely to attract socially conscious, hard-working candidates with a talk-it-through as a family mentality - building stronger inter-team bonds, helping employee retention and producing more passionate employees.

It is evident, then, that it has become essential to communicate this when advertising for a new position. After all, organisations that deliver on communicating their EVP increase new hire commitment by nearly 30%!

Why can’t I just use our usual Job Advert template?

We know that formulaic and templated job ads are, on average, 6.5 years old, contain Frankenstein-style mistakes from repeat copy and pasting, and, on the whole, hugely damage EVP.

EVP becomes diluted or removed when multiple stakeholders input their edits into job descriptions. Times this by a de-centralised team and amplify it across different global territories with different cultural expectations and languages - and up rises a problem. A negative image of your brand - less trustworthy - more errors (around 7.2), and a higher chance of a candidate simply scrolling past your ad without applying.

But how can you expect to keep track of the inclusion of your EVP without a laborious quality assurance process, paying extra staff members or hiring specialised copywriters to do the job?
