5 Easy Videos You Can Make To Attract More Quality Candidates

It's time to give candidates what they want...more insights on what it's like to work at your company!

LinkedIn put out some data that showed 66% of candidates want to know more about your company culture before they apply for a job. This can easily be accomplished by shooting some quick recruiting videos.

5 Easy Videos You Can Make To Attract More Quality Candidates

1. Office Tour: Walk around your office and show off your space. Stop by some of your employee's offices and ask what they are working on!
   
2. Projects Overview: Sit down with someone on the team you are hiring for and ask them about projects they are working on, but also the projects on their roadmap.
   
3. Day-in-the-life: This makes for a great blog post, but an even better video. Have someone walk through their day-to-day in the role you are trying to fill.
   
4. Interview Process Overview: As a Recruiter, it can be easy to forget that interviewing for a position can be extremely nerve-wracking for some people. Put candidates at ease and share the step-by-step process they will go through. Get your interview team involved and show who the candidates will be meeting with.
   
5. Manager Interview: I love seeing managers get involved in the interview process because they will be overseeing the new employee. It's a great way for candidates to get familiar with someone they will be working very closely with and learn from.

Well there you have it! 5 simple videos that don't require too much planning or budget. Not all the videos I mention have to do with culture, but I wanted to focus on 'easy' videos that you can make an impact now!

For those of you who are thinking, I don't have a camera and don't know how to make recruiting videos, check out this video I made previously about setting yourself up for success. Also, this video was shot on a Google Pixel 3, with a $50 lapel mic, a Sony Voice Recorder, and edited in Adobe Premiere Pro.
