Web marketing minute
Videos are a powerful tool in recruiting effectively because they can reach passive candidates. Recruitment videos can grab the attention of top talent by telling a story that speaks directly to potential candidates. Research tells us that video content on social media typically achieves 1200% more shares than text and image content. Some recruitment firms even claim that embedded videos receive 800% more engagement on job posting and 34% greater application rates. Time to add recruitment videos to your arsenal. Contact Becky, Communications Director, with questions.
