Start with the candidate

Help candidates see the opportunity before they apply.

A recruiting video is a good fit when candidates need to understand the role, team, workplace, mission, or employee experience before they feel ready to apply.

We start with the candidates you want to reach and the questions they are likely to ask. Then we choose the employee voices, workplace moments, locations, and final versions that will give honest, useful answers.

Choose recruiting video when candidates need to picture themselves on your team.It works well for career pages, culture stories, employee interviews, role videos, hiring campaigns, LinkedIn, admissions, and program recruiting.

Recruiting video formats

Choose the videos your candidates need.

A main recruiting video can tell the full story, while shorter captioned versions help you reach people through career pages, job posts, social media, email, events, and referrals.

Before we talk

Four helpful things to share on the first call.

You do not need a finished script. These starting points help us plan a useful, honest recruiting story.

  1. 01
    Candidates you want to reachWho needs the video, and what do they need to understand before they apply?
  2. 02
    Where it will be usedWill it live on a career page, job post, LinkedIn, email, event, or campaign?
  3. 03
    People and workplaceWhich employees, leaders, roles, locations, and real moments can answer candidate questions credibly?
  4. 04
    Timing and feedbackWhat hiring date matters, and who will give feedback on the final video?

How the project works

From your hiring goals to ready-to-publish recruiting videos.

We guide the project from the first conversation through filming, feedback, captions, and final delivery. Timing depends on the number of people, locations, filming days, and video versions you need.

01

Understand your hiring goals

We learn who you are hiring, what candidates should understand, where the video will be used, and when you need it.

02

Choose the right employee voices

We help you select people who can speak honestly about the team, work, culture, and employee experience.

03

Plan what we will film

We turn candidate questions into interview topics, workplace scenes, locations, and a practical filming plan.

04

Prepare people and locations

We confirm schedules, employee permissions, workplace access, and what everyone can expect on filming day.

Film natural conversations

We guide each interview, capture the workplace, and look for the honest moments candidates need to see.

Budget, timing, and final files

Recruiting video questions

What to know before you start.

Here are clear answers to the questions hiring teams often ask about employee interviews, filming at work, cost, timing, and results.

How long should a recruiting video be?

The right length depends on where candidates will watch and what they need to understand. A career-page story may need more context than a shorter LinkedIn or role-specific clip.

How do you help employees feel comfortable on camera?

Interview planning starts with themes and prompts, not lines to memorize. Participants know what the conversation will cover, and the interview is guided so employees can answer in their own words.

Can one shoot create videos for several roles or locations?

Often, yes. We will identify which roles, locations, and messages can share footage and which need their own story. Planning this before filming keeps the schedule and final video list practical.

What permissions should the hiring team plan?

Plan for employee permission, workplace access, any visible clients or customers, location releases, logos, music, personal information, and where each video can be published.

What affects recruiting video cost and timeline?

The biggest variables are the number of stories, employees, locations, filming days, travel, feedback rounds, graphics, captions, music, and finished versions. Hiring deadlines and feedback timing also matter.

How should recruiting video performance be measured?

You might look at watch time, career-page actions, applications, and the quality of candidates who move forward. Video is one part of the hiring process, so review it alongside the job post, outreach, and application experience.
