During the primary research, quantitative and qualitative methods were used. As a result of this research, we can model what the HR specialists interviewed think the benefits of employer branding are if they are able to act with a conscious and strategic approach to HR activities. On the other hand, we also can model the special behavior and attitude of Z generation related to the workplace choice process to identify the gaps between the requirements of employees and employers.
