What is Employee Advocacy?

The promotion of an organization by its own employees, typically through sharing company content on personal social media, recommending the employer to potential hires, and speaking positively about the brand in professional networks.

Why it matters in hiring

Employee Advocacy comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
