I disagree on videos. Hiring videos in my experience always end up as very cultish and uncomfortable feeling. If I see a video I do not apply, I assume more people are like me.

- mcv 8y agoMore importantly, a video is less accessible. I may not be in a place where I want to watch a video. It makes it an extra hurdle to pass to get to the job ad. You first need to capture my attention with the text. Once I'm interested, I might click on the video, but if it's just a video, the only chance I'll watch it if it's the video ad I need to watch before the video I actually want to see on Youtube, and you manage to capture my attention in the first few seconds before I get the opportunity to skip the ad. That can be done, but you really need to lead with something extraordinarily cool.
