Ben Kesler, in his LinkedIn post says, something very important on Dark Social vs having an open conversation with candidates on what they think of the employer and what would they like to know about the employer. Check this --

Your employer branding main goal is to create demand among the relevant talent pools. But how do you measure talent demand generation?

Talent demand generation comes from building a community of passive candidates that rave to work for you. But you can’t control every aspect of where that happens!

🧶 One candidate might see a post on LinkedIn, another listens to the CEO on a podcast where they might mention their 2023 vision, another might got sent a job ad from their friend or referred by an existing employee.

This is called “dark social” and it comprises all the things you CANNOT track with traditional tracking software. Organic social posts, pods or word of mouth.

This is why basing the success of your efforts on how much a single organic post received is irrelevant if not totally counterproductive.

How do you then know whether you’re doing is working? And how do you track it? The short answer is: TALK to PEOPLE :)
