 Best Practices:

  1. Engage with a Dynamic Format

Gone are the days when lengthy text descriptions were enough. Video job descriptions offer a dynamic and engaging alternative. They provide a unique opportunity to highlight a role's key responsibilities, requirements, and benefits in a way that text alone can’t match. Imagine candidates watching a short, captivating video that walks them through the role, the team, and the company’s vision. It’s a far more engaging experience than a static job post. According to a recent survey, 75% of job seekers find video job descriptions more engaging than text-only listings.

  1. Showcase Your Company Culture

Videos showcase true company culture, giving candidates a visual and audio insight into what it’s like to work there. This personal touch can make a significant difference, helping candidates envision themselves as part of a team. By capturing the essence of your workplace—its values, the vibe, and the people—you create a connection that text alone can’t achieve. 92% of hiring managers believe that showcasing company culture through video improves the quality of applicants.
