In today’s episode of The Workplace, we dive into the trends shaping the Malaysian job market in 2024. From competitive salaries to flexible work arrangements, we explore what matters most to job seekers and how top brands are evolving to meet these demands.

Joining us is Alex Haigh, Asia Pacific Managing Director at Brand Finance, to break down the 2024 edition of their Employer Brand Index.

- How companies like Petronas and major telcos are doing in employer branding.

- The role of flexible work arrangements in attracting top talent.
