Do you think companies are doing enough to engage with potential applicants? Have you experienced anything particular from a hiring company?

I remember Vestas ( Danish windmill manufacturer) organised a case study competition to attract new applicants and engage with potential employess. It was a24 hour project in groups to resolve an issue within the company. Amazing working atmosphere, motivated people, a lot of ideas and workshops. As a participant you get to learn a lot about the company business, engage with values and the brand and a chance to be noticed by the management team of the company.
