I'm a big fan of video-based screening, especially for positions where they're gonna have to interact, they're gonna have to have good communication skills. Indeed or VideoAsk are great ways to do this. If you put a job up and people start to apply for that position, you're gonna get flooded with applicants. As a busy entrepreneur, unless you've got someone in charge of recruiting, you're gonna get buried. You're like, "Oh, I got all these applicants. I don't know who I should meet with," right? And maybe you start to call people back and you have these short conversations. It will suck days, if not weeks, of your life per position that you need to fill. And so one shortcut we found that works really well, have them shoot a video in advance. Hey, look, if you're interested in the role, you will get a video-based application process. Click here and answer these 4 questions. Like, why do you think you're a good fit for the position? What's your background that is gonna play nicely here? Why should we choose you versus any of the other talent that we have? And what are your income and salary expectations?
