In times of YouTube and numerous other video portals, application videos are becoming ever more popular.
Unlike written job application documents, using video allows applicants to demonstrate their personality by means of facial expression, gesture and language and thus, rise above the competition as they particularly showcase their communication skills.
As a provider of web-based recruiting solutions, HRecruiting has expanded its electronic applicant file by including a video category. In their online job applications, applicants can enter a link to their application video (e.g. YouTube). With an application video, HR representatives receive an initial audio-visual impression of the candidate and are capable of better short-listing the pre-selected candidates.
