Recruitment Videos That Attract the Right People to Your Business

Recruitment has become one of the biggest challenges facing businesses across Aberdeen and the North East.

Many organisations are competing for the same limited pool of skilled professionals. At the same time, candidates often know very little about a company before deciding whether to apply.

A well-crafted recruitment video helps change that.

Instead of relying on a written job description alone, recruitment videos allow potential candidates to see:

What the organisation actually does

What the working environment is like

The people they would work with

The values and culture of the company

At Reach Video, recruitment videos are designed to tell the real story of what it’s like to work within your organisation, helping you attract candidates who genuinely connect with your business.

Why Businesses Invest in Recruitment Videos

Recruitment has become increasingly difficult for many organisations, particularly in regions where skilled talent is in high demand.

Businesses often use recruitment video when they need to:

✔

Attract the attention of qualified candidates

✔

Communicate what makes their company a great place to work

✔

differentiate themselves from larger or better-known employers

✔

improve the quality of job applications

✔

support employer branding and long-term recruitment efforts

✔

Give candidates a clearer picture of the people and culture

When candidates can see the people, culture, and work environment behind a business, they can make a more informed decision about whether it’s the right fit.

The Recruitment Challenge in Aberdeen

‍

Many businesses across Aberdeen and the North East are facing significant recruitment pressures.

Organisations frequently report challenges such as:

‍

Shortages of skilled candidates in key industries

Increasing competition for experienced professionals

Limited visibility compared with larger employers

Candidates withdrawing or not attending interviews

New hires leaving soon after joining

‍

These challenges make it more important than ever for organisations to clearly communicate what makes them a great place to work.

Recruitment videos help potential candidates understand not just the job, but the people and environment they would be joining.

What Makes an Effective Recruitment Video

Many recruitment videos focus on polished visuals but fail to communicate the real experience of working at the company.

The most effective recruitment videos focus on authentic stories from the people who already work there.

Strong recruitment videos typically show:

Real employees describing their work

The environment and culture of the organisation

The challenges and opportunities within the role

What makes the company different as an employer

Our Story-First Approach

Recruitment videos are most effective when they focus on real human stories rather than scripted corporate messaging.

Before filming begins, we focus on:

01

Understanding the type of candidate you want to attract

02

Identifying the right people within the organisation to feature

03

Shaping the story around real experiences of working there

04

Planning visuals that show the working environment naturally

This approach ensures the video reflects the true culture and character of the organisation, helping attract candidates who are a strong fit.

Types of Recruitment Video

Recruitment videos can take several forms depending on the hiring challenge and the organisation’s goals.

Common formats include:

Employer Brand Videos

Films that show the culture, values, and people behind the organisation.

Employee Story Videos

Real employees describe their roles, experiences, and why they enjoy working there.

Job Role Videos

Videos explaining what a specific role involves and what candidates can expect.

Culture Videos

Content that shows the day-to-day environment and working culture within the company.

Recruitment Videos for Aberdeen Businesses

Recruitment videos can be particularly valuable for organisations operating in industries experiencing skills shortages.

These often include sectors such as:

✔

Energy (Oil & Gas and Renewables)

✔

Business and Professional Services

✔

Manufacturing and Engineering

✔

Food & Drink and Agriculture

In these industries, attracting the right people often requires more than simply posting a job description. A recruitment video can help communicate the opportunities, culture, and purpose behind the role.

Frequently Asked Questions about Recruitment Video Production

What does recruitment video production cost?

The investment depends on the recruitment challenge we’re solving rather than simply the filming time. Factors such as story complexity, filming locations, and how the video will be used influence the final cost. During a Clarity Call we’ll understand your recruitment goals and provide a proposal tied to the value the video will create.

How long does it take?

Most recruitment video projects take four to eight weeks from the initial Clarity Call to final delivery. Once we understand the project we’ll provide a clear timeline.

What's included?

Clarity Call, story design, filming, editing, revisions, and guidance on how to deploy the finished video effectively. Full usage rights are included.

Do you work outside Aberdeen?

Yes. We’re based in Aberdeen but work with organisations across Scotland and beyond. Filming usually takes place at your location.

What do you need from us?

We need to understand the business problem you're solving, who your audience is, and what success looks like. Once that’s clear, we manage the rest of the production process.

How many rounds of changes are included?

Two rounds of revisions are included as standard. Because we invest time in getting the story right during the design phase, most projects don’t require more.

What makes your approach different?

Many recruitment videos simply promote a job role.

Our approach focuses on telling the real story of working within your organisation, helping candidates understand the culture, people, and opportunities before they apply.

What types of recruitment videos do you produce?

Employer brand videos, employee story videos, role-specific recruitment videos, and culture videos. The right format depends on the recruitment challenge you want to solve.
