Kampania Employer Branding Heineken
What can be done to attract to the company candidates who know how to go beyond the patterns, and who look for unusual challenges and constant surprises at work? Heineken managed to create an image of such an employer literally with one video. Although the campaign we are talking about is already 11 years old, it is a great example of successful employer branding.
What is the strength of this material?
- The narrative directly addresses the repetitiveness and boredom often experienced by candidates during recruitment.
- The storytelling storyline grabs your attention and – even though this employer branding video is over 3 minutes long, you want to watch it to the end.
- The interesting style of filming is somewhat reminiscent of the atmosphere of popular reality shows or the mockumentary series “The Office.”
- The film fits perfectly with Heineken’s brand image as laid-back, unconventional and trend-setting.
After seeing it, many candidates may be excited to think about what the next recruitment at Heineken will look like. We’ll admit… we ourselves would love to see it ;-).

What is the power of this employer branding video?
- The short, entertaining form easily focuses attention.
- The story arouses interest and… leaves one wondering what the joke was about (= is remembered for a long time). The message is universal – it supports not only recruitment, but also Intel’s overall brand image.
