Since the competition on the market regarding standing out as an organization and as an employer, creating a good reputation is more important than ever. Knowledge regarding how to attract potential employees is vital for organizations. This to be able to differentiate themselves from their competitors with an advantage. The research area regarding employer branding and employer value proposition has developed since Ambler and Barrow (1996) first minted the concept, but it is still important to contribute with further studies. The purpose of this study was to contribute with more knowledge regarding the components of organizations EVP’s and how they communicate this to potential employees. Further, the study had a descriptive purpose with a qualitative approach, and it was deductive. This was achieved by interviewing six different respondents from six different audit firms active in Sweden. The interviews were semi-structured, recorded and transcribed. The collected empirical data showed that the components included in audit firms EVP’s are compensation, benefits, work content, career, affiliation and they choose to communicate work content, career, and affiliation. The main communication channels used to communicate their EVP’s to potential employees are social media, LinkedIn, their own websites and on-campus marketing.
