BrandCamp will be way
more fun than Band Camp.
BAYARD IS A PROUD SPONSOR OF
SUMMER BRAND CAMP 2013
If you think Fun and Strategy mix like plaid pants
and hockey masks, we’d say, ok, you’re right.
But, that doesn’t mean employer branding can’t
be fun. Can a job search be fun?
Absolutely. Candidates are hungry for stand-out
opportunities. They want to be inspired. When
was the last time your applicants broke into
song because you were an employer of choice?
If you said, “never”, creative fun might be the
missing strategy.
To learn how branding can be fun and
strategic contact:
