Employers could fill job vacancies more quickly if they use video-based applications, a recruitment agency has said.
According to Salesprorecruitment.co.uk, using streaming videos as part of the recruitment process could cut search to appointment time by as much as half. And because presentation and communication skills are such an important part of sales roles, video applications could allow employers to successfully pre-screen job seekers. Video applications would also be particularly useful for interviewing applicants located overseas for international positions. "With the world shrinking around us, video is everywhere now and the next generation of sales pros are used to networking through social sites and communicating using tools such as video," commented Russell Margison, founder of Salesprorecruitment.co.uk. He added that Sales Pro is well placed to provide the platform to exploit the power and benefits of video. Salesprorecruitment.co.uk is believed to be one of the only dedicated sales recruitment sites to offer video-based applications to candidates. ![]() |
