Employer brand content library audit checklist

Do you need more employer brand content? Or do you need to get more value from the content you already have? 

When assets are scattered across folders, tools and teams, it’s easy to lose track of what exists, what’s approved, and what can be repurposed. Employer brand teams end up recreating content unnecessarily or spending hours searching for that one video, or chasing employees to do a new recording. 

That hidden work is part of the Coordination Tax: the time employer brand teams lose coordinating the people, content and processes around creating stories. 

This quick employer brand content library audit will help you see what you already have, what’s still useful and what needs attention. Use this employer brand content library audit checklist to review your content and identify where to start filling any gaps.

If keeping your assets organized is already a challenge, our guide to building an employee content library that gets used can help.

Mark each statement Yes, Sometimes or No. There’s no perfect score. The goal is to spot what’s slowing your team down.

We can publish our content without reworking it each time.
We add captions, transcripts and other accessibility support.

Reuse

Yes Sometimes No
We check what already exists before requesting new content.
We turn longer interviews into shorter content for different channels.
We make it easy for recruiters to find content for their roles and locations.
We keep the original files needed to update or reuse an asset.

Maintenance

We remove outdated or duplicate content.
We review our content library regularly.

What do your answers reveal? 

You don’t need a perfect score. Look for patterns across your answers. 

Mostly yes: Your content library likely has a healthy foundation. 

Mostly sometimes: Your process is working, but perhaps not consistently. 

Several No answers in one section: Start with that section before requesting more content. Fixing a process could save your team unnecessary work. 

Where should you start? 

Look at the statements you marked Sometimes or No.

Which one is slowing your team down the most? Start there. You don't need to fix everything at once.

You may not need more content. The right employee stories could already be sitting in an old campaign, interview or internal article. They may just need to be found, updated or repurposed.

When your team can easily see what exists, what’s approved and where it can be used, less time disappears into searching, checking and recreating. That means more time getting employee stories into the world, and less time paying the Coordination Tax in action. Vouch gives your team one place to organize, find and reuse approved employee content, with AI making your library searchable to find you the right story in one prompt.
