How it works

Agency method. Software speed. Your evidence.

Employer branding has been a choice between a ₹40-lakh agency project and a scheduler with no strategy. This is the missing middle — operated for you by TalentRubric.

01 · Strategy

An EVP that survives skeptics

Discovery interviews, give/get logic, and research-grounded pillars — every claim gated behind real proof, or it doesn't ship.

02 · Content & creative

One idea, every channel, natively

LinkedIn, X, Instagram, Reddit — the same core narrative, executed to each channel's norms, with matching creative direction.

03 · AI visibility

Win the answer, measurably

We track how AI engines name and frame you on the queries your candidates actually ask — and fix the sources that drive it. Honestly: no fake reviews, no astroturf, ever.

Why this matters now

The talent your GCC needs is deciding without you in the room.

The numbers behind the shift — from independent 2025–26 India talent research.

Brand invisibility

45%

of mid-level engineers can't name three GCCs they'd work for — employer-brand gap, not a pay gap. (Quantalent / NASSCOM 2025–26)

Attrition

25–30%

voluntary attrition for AI/ML and senior engineering roles at India GCCs. (Aon 2025 India Salary Survey)

The real driver

42%

of senior engineers who leave cite limited career progression — not salary. Branding and EVP, not comp. (NASSCOM 2025 GCC Report)

Ownership works

+34%

higher offer acceptance among 5+ year engineers when a GCC articulates specific ownership. (Deloitte 2025 Global Shared Services Survey)

Open to leave

52%

of GCC employees in India are open to new opportunities right now — a market that rewards the visible employer. (Industry 2025–26)

The new front door

AI

Candidates increasingly shortlist employers inside ChatGPT and Perplexity — before your careers page. That's the layer we measure and fix.
