How Siemens Attract Top Tech Talents
Siemens, a tech innovator, faced challenges in attracting top tech talent, competing with giants like Google and Amazon. The company needed a strong employer brand.
Steps Taken
1. Crafting the EVP.
Siemens developed a compelling Employee Value Proposition (EVP): "Create a better tomorrow with us", supported by four pillars: Customer Impact, Technology with Purpose, Empowered People, and Growth Mindset.
2. Building a Dream Team.
A cross-functional team was formed, involving HR, global communications, and engineers. Their insights ensured the message resonated with tech professionals, not just HR experts.
3. Global Adaptation.
The EVP was tailored to different regions, emphasizing relevant pillars to meet local priorities. For instance, German talent values stability and career progression, while Chinese candidates prioritize innovation and social responsibility.
4. Collaboration and Real Insights.
Siemens didn't rely solely on HR experts. They tapped into their internal tech talent, ensuring the message resonated authentically with the tech crowd.
