Looking for the secret sauce to attract and retain top tech talent? It's all about your Employer Value Proposition (EVP). This isn't just a list of pay and perks, it's the heart and soul of your company - culture, values, mission, and more. It's what sets you apart in the tech talent battleground, giving you the edge over competitors​. A well-crafted EVP doesn't just draw in new talent, but it also enhances your brand image, making your company a magnet for the brightest minds. It's like a beacon, showcasing why your company is the place to be, and helping talent see themselves as part of your story​​. But don't forget, a strong EVP is also about retention. It's about making promises and keeping them, aligning expectations with reality, and promoting a sense of fulfilment and belonging. Done right, your EVP could slash your annual employee turnover by a whopping 69%​ (ref - talent works)​. And the best part? It brings in quality hires who resonate with your company's mission and culture, leading to a more engaged and productive workforce​​.
