From Salary to Flexibility: What Do Malaysia’s Job Seekers Prioritise?

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. We discuss how Malaysia’s biggest companies, including Petronas and top telecommunications brands, are performing and the strategies they’re using to attract and retain talent in an increasingly competitive market.

Topics covered include:

- Key trends influencing job seekers in Malaysia for 2024.

- Insights from the 2024 Employer Brand Index by Brand Finance.

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

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