The salary transparency trend continues. Last year, Colorado passed its Equal Pay Transparency Rules, which required employers to include compensation in job postings, notify employees about promotional opportunities, and record job descriptions and wage records. Soon after, states like Washington, Nevada, Maryland, and Rhode Island followed suit. 

Making the Move to Salary Transparency

Salary transparency is becoming a global issue, with the US leading in closing the pay gap. Companies now must provide more explicit wages and disclose their "good faith" pay range. Pay transparency builds trust and helps address biases in the workplace, allowing for greater fairness and satisfaction for employees.

People's initial perception of your organization is also known as your brand reputation. Your brand rep either encourages or discourages people from engaging with your company. This means the way people view your company will affect sales and even recruiting efforts. 

Brand Reputation 101

Brand reputation is essential in recruiting and sales. It's important to monitor and maintain a positive brand rep, from internally managing expectations to proactively addressing small issues. Also, stay connected and collect feedback to keep a clean online brand rep and make sure your company is seen as a desirable work place.

As a recruiter or employer, you know how much the economy affects your recruitment and retention efforts. You aren't just in competition with companies in your industry, but you are also fighting against inflation, recession, unemployment rates, and so much more. 

Recruiting in a Tight Market

Recruiting and retaining talent is a competitive game in today's economy. Job seekers have more bargaining power and companies are competing for talent. Get to know your employees and remain competitive in the market to give job seekers a great experience. Automation and quick processes can help retain recruits during the hiring process.
