The success of companies is based on the ability to find and keep optimal number of right people at work. Thanks to fast exchange of information, people have become more aware of different opportunities as well as their own values and therefore, the expectations to employers have grown a lot.

MOST ATTRACTIVE EMPLOYERS IN ESTONIA

Organizations try to find best candidates to their teams who are either experienced specialists or young talents. Rapid downfall in the number of young people forces organizations to make an effort to be an attractive employer for young talents not only now but in five, ten and fifteen years. Businesses need to consciously design their employer brand to ensure skilled and motivated employees for the future. When designing an employer brand it is important to know right communication channels, work expectations and preferences of future employees.
