In this segment, the speaker reflects on the hiring outcomes from using video job descriptions delivered via VHS. He reports that every candidate hired watched the recruitment video multiple times, which he views as both flattering and highly beneficial. Rewatching allows candidates to dissect role-specific terminology—especially jargon that only industry veterans recognize—helping them gauge whether they fit the company’s culture and tribe. The speaker notes that this repeated viewing leads to strong positive feedback not only during the hiring process but also after candidates are hired, indicating that the video packages effectively support both selection and onboarding.

So, I will touch base on the video. So from the hiring we have done through VHS, I can say that all the candidates we've hired said they've watched the video multiple times, which one is flattering, but on the other hand, I think it's very useful for them because the more you watch it, the more you're trying to dissect and understand this position. And I know Justin and I can sometimes use certain Verbiages that only veterans will actually know what we're talking about, but they can kind of draw that line and be like, I think I can fit into that tribe over there. And it works out for them. Definitely the video packages definitely have gotten some very good feedback on the hired side, not just in the hiring process, but on the hired side.
