Excellence in Early Career Recruitment Strategy
Bright Horizons sought to engage early talent audiences—students, graduates, and campus leads—with a personalized, informative, and inspiring approach. To achieve this, the company launched the Early Talent Insider Newsletter in August 2025 as part of its campus strategy. This branded monthly newsletter, titled “Your Bright Future: Bright Horizons Early Talent Insider,” delivers timely content such as career pathways, internship highlights, event invitations, and success tips. Using automation tools, Bright Horizons automated delivery, segmented audiences, and tracked engagement to ensure precision and impact. Visually engaging templates reinforced the employer brand, while dynamic audience growth strategies helped expand outreach and strengthen the talent pipeline.

The Talent Acquisition team is committed to creating a welcoming, respectful, and inclusive experience that reflects the organization’s values. This signature approach ensures candidates feel valued throughout the process, strengthening relationships with campus partners and positioning Bright Horizons as an employer of choice for students and graduates. By prioritizing exceptional candidate care, the team enhances the candidate journey and reinforces the company’s reputation for integrity and inclusivity.
