We truly brought Sapient to life through this campaign. We inspired people all over India to learn about the campaign, about available positions, about our growing company and most importantly inspired them to cause a little trouble. This integrated campaign was truly led by our promotions via a myriad of media. Consumers (or troublemakers) were able to engaged in every step of the way.
We needed a solution that was sustainable and impactful. We chose to invest both in brand advertising and strengthening our hiring teams. To make it impactful we commissioned a candidate, internal research using Employer Branding and strategy teams and social profiling we realized that were still known for the ‘old’ Sapient and not the ‘new’ Sapient we had morphed into! This advertising campaign therefore aimed to address the complete spectrum of talent management at Sapient. It would play a crucial role in – attracting, engaging, and retaining our preferred talent. We clearly articulated traits that will make talent succeed in the ‘new’ Sapient – the disruptor or innovator who can challenge the status quo, invent or innovate, transform clients, adapt to change and redefine them while having fun at work and giving back to the society. We clearly wanted to attract well-rounded personalities with a drive to reimagine the world.
