How to measure the success of your employer branding strategy in 2025
In 2025, employer branding is no longer just a visibility exercise. It is a direct business impact strategy: it attracts talent, builds loyalty among key teams, and positions your organization as a place worth staying and growing.
But to make it work, it must be measured correctly. Because what is not measured cannot be improved.
Key metrics to evaluate your employer branding
The effectiveness of your employer brand strategy can be evaluated on three interconnected levels:
External Perception
- Candidate Net Promoter Score (cNPS): Measures whether candidates would recommend your company, even if they weren’t hired.
- Qualitative presence in tech media and communities: Beyond the noise, are you a reference?
- Engagement with key profiles: It’s not about how many, but who is interacting with you.
Internal Culture
- Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS): What is the real level of commitment?
- Retention rate in strategic positions: Especially in development, product, or data.
- Internal mobility: If there is no growth from within, talent will leave.
Hiring Efficiency
- Time to Hire: A strong employer brand shortens cycles.
- Offer acceptance ratio: If your top talent says “yes” quickly, you’re on the right track.
- Diversity in hired candidates: Reflects the appeal of your culture and your commitment to real inclusion.
Employer branding is not HR marketing
An effective strategy doesn’t start in the communication department; it starts in the coherence between what a company says and what a person experiences from the inside. The best employer brands are those that build environments where talent can learn, have an impact, and be heard.
That’s why at My Tech Plan, we collaborate with People, Marketing, and Technology teams to boost their employer branding strategies with real impact: aligned with business goals, connected with tech communities, and designed to attract the talent that makes a difference.
