Scope: Key Themes and Research Questions for Submissions
The editorial team of
Human Resource Management (HRM) would like to invite authors to submit original theoretical and empirical research papers for our special issue on Employer Branding and Talent Acquisition. Employer branding in today’s globally and virtually connected
modern economy is thus crucial for attracting, developing, and retaining a workforce that yields firm competitive advantage. A traditional focus on talent acquisition has yielded much insight to how employer brands attract and influence job seeker prehire
outcomes like organizational attraction and job choice. However, there is still a lack of knowledge of how employer branding fits into the overall human resource management system and strategy within the firm. Hence, although widely acknowledged as a key concern
for organizational leadership, knowledge remains sparse for how employer branding can be leveraged to achieve myriad organizational goals. Similarly, the rapidly changing economic, technological, and socio-political global landscape is starting to call into
question the generalizability and precision of much of our current understanding of employer branding. For instance, employer control over their brand has become much more challenging, with informal insider information on workplaces becoming commonplace via
social media platforms. Hence, current information and tools through which leaders and HR professionals effectively design and manage their employer brands may be obsolete in the current business climate. Employer branding may also have implications for organizations’
ability to navigate, or even survive, crisis situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Given the context of changes in the economic, technological, and sociological environment, our special issue hopes to encourage rigorous updating and expansion of knowledge
on employer branding.
