What is an employer branding video?

A film that shows the workplace from the inside: the work, the team, the location and why it is a good place to work. Candidates watch first, then apply: they check the company page, the careers page and who their colleagues would be.

When a film sits next to the job ad, there are fewer misunderstandings and the first interview goes better, because the candidate already knows what they are applying for.

Employees, not slogans

Your employees' real words are more credible than any slogan. That is why we shoot interviews: what they do, what they like about it, what surprised them in the first week. We agree the questions in advance, but we never write the answers for them.

On the shoot we help them in front of the camera: no teleprompter, we simply talk, and we edit the best moments together.

One shoot, four channels

One shooting day gives you material for several positions and several channels, months in advance.

recruitment film

A 1 to 2 minute film for your careers page: the work, the team, the location and why it is a good place to work.

This is what candidates watch before they apply.

interviews

Short, personal videos with employees: what they do, what they like about it, what surprised them in the first week.

We agree the questions, but we never write the answers for them.

linkedin

A 4:5 captioned cut for the feed, for professional positions.

In ads it can be targeted by position, industry and location.

tiktok, reels

A vertical, fast-paced cut with captions for younger candidates.

It reaches them where they spend most of their time, and it does not look like a job ad.

Cuts by channel

Every channel calls for a different format. We make all the cuts from a single shoot.

We measure which video brings applicants

We track applications from the ad to the submitted form, with server-side tracking. This shows which video, which channel and which position brings real applicants, not just views.

We plan the next shoot on that basis: if the employee interviews bring more applicants, we make more of those. Details: server-side conversion tracking.

Frequently asked questions: employer branding video

Who should appear in the recruitment film?

Your own employees. They are the most credible, and they are the people the candidate will work with.

Where do we use the recruitment film?

On the careers page, in LinkedIn and Meta ads, next to the job ad and in the interview.

Can we measure whether the video brings applicants?

Yes, we track applications from the ad to the submitted form, with server-side tracking.

What if our employees do not like being on camera?

No teleprompter, we simply talk with them and edit the best moments together. Anyone who prefers not to speak can still be shown at work.

Does one film work for several positions?

The recruitment film presents the company; for the individual positions we make short employee interviews and cuts from the same shoot.
