Love. I think it’s a smart idea to use authentic videos of employees, it gives an overview. I just hope they’re genuine.

You can tell if the person in the video has a flat affect or if they genuinely seem excited for you to apply, you can get a better feel for company culture. It's not dissimilar to the employer offering you their side of the interview process first, which humanizes both the organization and the interviewer.

This is a great idea. I would love to see more jobs have this during the hiring and recruiting process. For me what's most interesting is putting a face/person with a job-posting.
How would you rate a job posting that includes video of employees in the company vs one that does not

Oh wow this was a super cool experience. It helped me get a sense of the job. One recommendation is to have them talk more about culture which is interesting to me

I love it as long as they aren't scripted. We want to know what's real, like how people actually feel about working there. Also tell me about your perks and benefits!
