Fix What’s Broken. Build What Works.
Good ideas are easy to claim.
Results are harder to fake.
GBS works with organizations that expect employer brand, media, and research to do something—not just look good in a deck.
The proof of our work shows up in:
Hiring performance
System clarity
Candidate alignment
And teams that stop guessing and start deciding with confidence
What follows reflects patterns across our work—not one-off wins or cherry-picked metrics.
What our work delivers
Across consulting, employer brand builds, research, and media, GBS clients consistently experience measurable improvements in how hiring systems perform—not just how they look.
In practice, this work has contributed to:
- Reduced time-to-fill in hard-to-hire and priority roles by improving candidate clarity and self-selection
- Stronger candidate alignment, resulting in fewer mismatches and downstream drop-off
- Higher-performing career sites, with clearer navigation, stronger engagement, and improved completion behavior
- More efficient recruitment media, where performance improves as clarity increases—not just spend
- Greater recruiter and hiring manager adoption, because messaging reflects reality and is easier to use
These outcomes are not the result of isolated tactics.
They emerge when strategy, psychology, and execution are designed to work together.

This work has been recognized by the Communicator Awards, Davey Awards, Webby Awards, and Shorty Awards, reflecting excellence in experience design, innovation, and performance.

Recruitment, B2B & B2C Media Performance
GBS-managed media performs because it reflects reality—and reinforces the right signals.
Across recruitment, B2B, and B2C engagements, clients have experienced:
Improved conversion efficiency as messaging clarity increases
Reduced waste from misaligned targeting and generic creative
Stronger consistency across paid media, social, and owned channels
Clearer insight into what is driving performance—and why
Our social and advertising campaigns have earned Shorty Award recognition and wins from the Davey Awards and Communicator Awards, recognizing innovative execution that connects strategy, creativity, and outcomes.
Custom Research & Talent Intelligence
When research is designed to be used, it changes decisions.
GBS-led research engagements have helped organizations:
- Identify hidden sources of hiring friction before they became costly
- Pressure-test assumptions around EVP, candidate experience, and messaging
- Make high-stakes decisions with greater confidence and credibility
- Build strategy grounded in evidence rather than anecdote
In many cases, this research becomes the backbone for employer brand strategy, activation, and media optimization.
Why clients trust GBS
Clients work with GBS because we:
01
Lead with diagnosis, not deliverables
02
Ground recommendations in psychology and evidence
03
Design systems teams can actually operate
04
Stay accountable to outcomes—not optics
We don’t disappear after the strategy is signed off.
We stay close to execution—because that’s where most things break.
If you want proof that strategy, psychology, and execution can work together—we should talk.
What this means for you
If you’re evaluating GBS, the question isn’t whether we can do the work.
It’s whether:
01
Your current systems are working as hard as they should
02
Your employer brand reflects reality—or just aspiration
03
Your media spend is driving confidence—or confusion
