WHAT OTHERS SAY

Working with Leading Employers is valuable to us because it strengthens our position as an attractive employer and enhances our visibility, both internally and externally.

Through this partnership, we have been able to further develop our employer branding activities in a targeted way and increase our visibility among prospective candidates. The award serves as a real eye-catcher for guests and new employees alike. At the same time, it reinforces our commitment to providing a modern, supportive and appreciative working environment. Going forward, we intend to continue leveraging our collaboration with Leading Employers to strengthen our employer brand. We want to be visible to talented professionals who value our corporate culture and encourage them to join us.

Credibility and authenticity in how we present ourselves as an employer play a vital role in today's highly competitive labour market. We are committed to further strengthening our position as an attractive employer in Austria. Leading Employers provides us with a valuable external perspective on whether we are perceived as the employer we aspire to be and whether we are continuing on the right course.

‍

From my perspective, the defining advantage of Leading Employers was its fully independent methodology. Unlike commissioned studies or influenced rankings, its objectivity stands out — especially in today’s landscape — giving us confidence that the results authentically represent our market standing.

Beyond credibility, the certification sharpened our employer branding in ways we hadn’t previously achieved. Within the first year, we observed a shift within the number of applicants.

What I find most impactful, however, is the ability to align our talent strategies with concrete metrics. Access to industry benchmarks and the capacity to link HR initiatives to tangible outcomes — such as hiring efficiency and resource optimization — have reshaped how we evaluate and advocate for these investments internally.

For our organization, Leading Employers is far more than just a label; it’s a strategic resource that enables evidence-based decisions across HR.

The Leading Employers award strengthens LÖWEN ENTERTAINMENT in several important respects. It enhances our external employer brand by clearly communicating what we stand for as an employer and what defines our organisation for our employees.

Furthermore, the value of the analysis conducted by the Institute of Research & Data Aggregation extends well beyond that of a conventional quality seal. In addition to receiving the award, we were provided with structured evaluations and practical, actionable recommendations.

These insights support us in systematically enhancing the quality of LÖWEN ENTERTAINMENT as an employer. At the same time, they have highlighted the areas in which we are already performing strongly, as well as those where there is further scope for development. As a result, the findings have provided valuable guidance in helping us maintain and further strengthen our long-term attractiveness as an employer.

Working with LEADING EMPLOYERS has been a genuine success story for binderholz. The award, together with the accompanying study, has enabled us to identify additional action points and further opportunities to strengthen our employer branding.

Moreover, an internationally recognised and respected award such as this plays an important role in helping us communicate the binderholz employer brand professionally and credibly to our target audiences. Even after receiving the LEADING EMPLOYER AWARD on multiple occasions, we remain immensely proud of this distinction. We see it as both a recognition of our achievements and a source of motivation to continue advancing our HR work every day.

‍

Our collaboration with LEADING EMPLOYERS is particularly valuable because it provides us with an independent, data-driven assessment of our attractiveness as an employer. As a public-sector employer, it is especially important for us to understand how we are perceived in the competition for skilled professionals and emerging talent, and to identify the areas in which we already compare favourably with other employers. This objective evaluation enhances our credibility with applicants, employees and stakeholders alike, as it is entirely independent of self-promotion or fee-based participation.

‍

What we value most about the collaboration is:

‍

• Scientific validity rather than self-assessment: The identification of the top employers is based solely on objective, data-driven analysis.

‍

• Transparency and benchmarking: Access to comprehensive insights, benchmarks and HR data enables us to critically evaluate our approach and identify opportunities for continuous improvement.

‍

• An independent mark of quality: The award serves as a credible endorsement of our HR strategy, strengthening our reputation among prospective talent and within the wider market.

‍

We are delighted to have been recognised as a LEADING EMPLOYER for the third consecutive year. This distinction reinforces our employer brand and provides a trusted foundation for our employer branding activities. For our employees, it is a highly visible acknowledgement of our commitment as an employer, fostering trust and strengthening engagement. For prospective applicants, it allows us to demonstrate the quality of our strategic people management through independently validated results. It reflects the City of Heilbronn's position as a modern, reliable and forward-looking employer.

‍

Looking ahead, the collaboration will remain an important part of our continued development. We are committed to further strengthening our capabilities in recruitment, employee development and leadership culture, while providing even more authentic insights and sharing best practices. LEADING EMPLOYERS offers us a valuable external perspective, and it is precisely this independent feedback that helps us continue on our path of continuous improvement with confidence and clarity.

‍

Being recognised as a LEADING EMPLOYER is a valuable endorsement of our commitment to excellence as an employer. What impressed us most was the objective and holistic assessment methodology, which considers multiple perspectives on employer quality. Throughout the process, our collaboration with the LEADING EMPLOYERS team was consistently professional, straightforward and collaborative.

The award helps us to further strengthen our employer brand and enables prospective applicants to immediately recognise what we stand for as an employer. At the same time, it increases our visibility in recruitment and reinforces our commitment to being an employer of choice.
