At exaqueo, we live and breathe employer branding. We love what we do, not just because of the impact we create, but because of the team we get to do it with. Here’s a look at some of our favorite aspects of the work we do, in the words of our team.

Many companies craft employer brands based on what they wish their culture was rather than what it actually is. Candidates and employees quickly recognize when an employer brand is more aspirational than authentic, leading to distrust, disengagement, and even public backlash.

Many companies rely on Glassdoor ratings and LinkedIn reviews as a measure of their employer brand. While these platforms provide valuable insights, they only scratch the surface. A truly strong employer brand requires deeper, more comprehensive measurement strategies.
