Carousel posts for HR & recruiting

Carousels transform job posts and employer branding content from forgettable to unforgettable. On LinkedIn — where 87% of recruiters are active — carousel posts get 5-10x more engagement than standard job postings. They let you showcase your culture, team, and benefits visually, making candidates feel what it's like to work at your company before they ever apply.

The most effective HR carousels include: employee spotlight stories ('Meet Sarah, our Head of Engineering'), day-in-the-life showcases, company culture highlights, benefits breakdowns, team achievement celebrations, diversity and inclusion initiatives, onboarding welcome posts, office/workspace tours, career growth stories ('From intern to VP'), and job opening announcements with team context.

Standard text job posts get scrolled past. Carousel job posts stand out because they: tell a story about the role and team, show real people and culture, highlight benefits visually (slide by slide), and give candidates a reason to stop scrolling. Companies using carousel job posts report 3-5x more applications and higher-quality candidates.

Create 'culture carousel' series: team outings, office spaces, work-from-home setups, team rituals, company values in action, employee testimonials, and behind-the-scenes moments. The key is authenticity — not stock photos, but real moments that show what makes your workplace unique. These carousels attract candidates who are a genuine culture fit.

Yes — employee spotlights are one of the highest-performing HR carousel formats. Structure: Slide 1 — Photo and name with engaging hook. Slide 2 — Their role and journey. Slides 3-4 — What they love about working here. Slide 5 — Career growth or achievements. Final slide — 'Want to join the team? We're hiring!' These humanize your company and drive referrals.

LinkedIn's algorithm heavily favors carousel content, so employer branding carousels reach far more people than standard posts. Consistent carousel posting (2-3x/week) builds a compelling employer brand narrative over time. Potential candidates who see multiple carousels about your culture, team, and growth opportunities form a strong positive impression — even before a job opens up.

Post 2-3 employer branding carousels per week. A winning mix: 1 employee spotlight/culture carousel, 1 industry insights or workplace tips carousel, and 1 current opening or team achievement carousel. Consistency is more important than volume — candidates notice brands that show up regularly with engaging content.
