Individual Session Details
Below you’ll find a detailed breakdown of each training session available in the packages offered above.
During this session, our Employer Branding Trainers thoroughly analyze and overview what it takes to have an excellent employer brand according to today's job seekers. Before meeting with you, our team will analyze your brand on several major pillars such as current brand awareness, current employer brand strength relative to your peers, engagement of your employees/brand ambassadors, and give you a company culture/value score. At the end of the session, we provide you with action items that your team can start working on immediately to get started on your employer branding journey.
Length — 60 minutes
Session 1 - Building the pillars for your employer brand
This session teaches you the insights you need to know about LinkedIn as a platform, the latest developments in Employer Branding, and what you should know about LinkedIn’s algorithm. Our experts will help you learn how to set objectives to reach your target audience, measure the impact of your content, and build a brand the proper way.
Session 2 - Building & optimizing your content strategy
The second session covers what an ideal content strategy looks like and what type of content works best on LinkedIn. We will analyze and optimize your current strategy (if you have no content strategy in place yet, we will design it in the session) and coach you on best practices to maximize your content's impact, engagement, and reach.
Length — 2 sessions, 120 minutes each
This is your check-up point! About six weeks after the previous training, we will schedule a follow-up session to discuss your progress, the challenges you have faced since we last spoke, and any outstanding questions you may have after implementing your learnings. Our goal is that you continue making progress and that your valuable insights, learnings, and plans aren’t left on the drawing board.
A successful employer branding strategy ultimately comes down to consistency and execution, so this session is vital to ensure sustained success. By the time this session concludes, we will have worked together to define your next steps and priorities at this stage in the process.
Length — 90 minutes
Session 1 - Building a stellar brand on LinkedIn
This first social ambassador session is focused on helping individual employees drive brand awareness and growth for their employer through dedicated strategy. We teach fundamental LinkedIn best practices and insights about LinkedIn as a platform, offer tips and tricks on creating a solid profile, and engage in an interactive profile cleanup/polishing session. Since this is a two-part package, we provide social ambassador trainees with homework and next steps for the follow-up session.
Session 2 - making content for LinkedIn
Now that these social ambassadors have had time to implement what we trained in our first session, we reconvene to discuss the next steps in their employer branding journey — making content for LinkedIn. We will do a quick reassessment of their profiles, then dive right into the content strategy portion of the training. Our team covers what you should know about LinkedIn’s algorithm, what times are best to post content, and how to analyze the quality of your content once you’re ready to post it.
We’ll provide you with our six-ingredient recipe for creating strong LinkedIn posts, demonstrate what works and doesn’t work content-wise, and walk you through 5 psychological motives that drive user engagement on your posts. By the end of the session, our social ambassadors will feel highly confident in their ability to drive brand awareness and engagement through their LinkedIn content development strategies.
