Due to the globalization in the world the labour market has become more competitive. This study turns to the labour market in Sweden where there has noticeably been a lack of competency regarding engineers and project leaders in the technical industry. In recent times organizations have begun working more actively with empowering their employer brand and the strategies around it, to become more attractive on the labour market. The term employer branding has therefore become more current today to attract the best talents. Employer branding is the work that saturates the whole organization towards becoming an attractive workplace where employees want to stay and potential employees want to be a part of. The aim of the study is to investigate how individuals within the engineering and project leader business think about regarding the choice of an employer. Throughout the study, several aspects have been investigated: the recruitment process and the experiences of it, what makes an employer attractive, expectations of an employer, on what basis employees are staying in an organization and thoughts around marketing. The empirical material has been analyzed with coding of the interviews together with research on employer branding. Theories such as Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and KASAM (theory of employer's needs  for  belonging)  have  been  applicated,  compared  and  discussed  to  the  result.  The empirical material is gathered by eight semi-structured interviews with a range of engineers and project leaders in different employment levels. The result of the study showed the importance of employer branding and that a strong brand and reputation affects and attracts potential employees and makes existent employers stay within the organization. The aspects that attracts engineers and project leaders are very similar but differs in a small extent regarding the size of the company and work tasks. Some central elements that attracts potential employees are opportunities for development, variation in work assignments, good reputation and the knowledge that the organization take care of their employers by offering support and well-being.
