What are you doing to stand out in a sea of black and white, Times New Roman job ads?
Ten days. On average, top candidates are only “on the market” for ten days. It’s more critical than ever to stand out and attract people early in their job search. Your job ad is your first chance to paint a clear picture about an opportunity with your organization. Make a great impression and engage job seekers by getting creative and telling a story.

We are always looking for ways to improve the employee journey. Lucky for us, we get to guinea pig lots of our ideas on ourselves. We recently noticed a small breakdown in the branding experience for candidates at the offer letter stage. What a missed opportunity!
The offer letter represents a key milestone in the employee journey. But we were still stuck in a rut of celebrating this milestone with a black and white, boring, legal document that required a magnifying glass and a full team of lawyers to read.

Receiving hundreds of applications for your job doesn’t mean you will be successful in attracting top talent for your position. You know this. In fact, you’re probably living this.

Especially in today’s market, with fierce competition for top talent. With Canada’s unemployment rate at 5.8%, it’s more difficult than ever for employers to attract and retain talent for their companies - much less top talent.
How are you positioning yourself as a competitor in the talent market?

Oh, hey there. It's me again. You remember, right? It's Sam tuning in from your dynamic intern duo, here to share my final thoughts before I head out the door! I've had the pleasure of spending Summer 2017 with a small but talented team. I found a home at Hot Soup and Envol - although I'm still waiting on receiving my free bowl of soup. False advertising? I think so.

Next up, we have our 'Doer-of-All-the-Things', Sasha Rudenko! Her official title may be Project Manager, but that by no means covers the extent of what she does here at Envol. With her pinch of sass and never-ending ambition, Sasha is a true asset at the office.
