employee alumni network
Advantages of an employee alumni network for employees
Building an alumni network for employees has many tangible benefits. Some of them include:
A channel for talent. A well-run alumni network is a great source of referrals when looking for future talent. The opinions of people who have worked at your company are valued by job candidates.
Bring back Boomerangs
Alumni can also replenish your talent pipeline. Hiring the right talent for a job is expensive and takes time.
Aside from returning, an employee can also recommend external talent from their network for a position.
A boomerang is someone who starts a new job because they already know the company, the customers, and the culture, and they bring the experience, insight, and perspective from their professional career.
