MYW Unscripted Episode 03 – Jose and Nicholas Do Their Homework: Recruitment Videos

Almost a full season later, Jose and Nicholas finally
get around to doing their homework! In this episode, we watch and discuss three
very different recruitment videos mentioned in our episode on “What Attracts
People to Organizations” (Season 1, Episode 6). We talk about some of the key
messages that organizations try to communicate through recruitment videos and
what they can tell you (and not tell you) about the organization’s culture. We
also discuss the limitations of recruitment videos in general and the
importance of seeking information from other sources to help you learn more
about your potential organizational suitor.
