Early Careers Pulse

Create a more supportive and inclusive journey for candidates and colleagues

The first steps your early careers talent takes with you are some of the most important. 

What is Early Careers Pulse and why is it important?

Early Careers Pulse is an automated pulse survey that measures their experience, from the day they apply to the day they complete your early careers programme. Early Careers Pulse regularly checks in to measure sentiment and identify issues. This equips your team to address concerns and improve the experience you offer.

Fine tuning

Responding to our findings and your strategic needs, we’ll continuously adapt and evolve the pulse surveys.

An employer brand that sparks
imaginations for the LEGO Group.

Despite being a global brand, the LEGO Group is a mystery as an employer. Not enough people know:

  • what kind of career development is possible there

  • the diversity of roles they recruit for

  • what their culture is actually like

It was time to show the culture, people and near-endless opportunities behind the bricks.
