There are a number of great books on employer branding available, but here are three of the top picks: 1. **The Employer Brand: Bringing the Best of Brand Management to People at Work** by Simon Barrow and Richard Mosley.

It provides practical advice on how to create a strong employer brand that will appeal to the best candidates. Each of these books has its own strengths and weaknesses, so it really depends on your needs and preferences which one you will find most helpful. If you're looking for a comprehensive overview of employer branding, then **The Employer Brand** is a great option.
