Recruitment Videos On The Rise

Posted on 08 February 2008 by Fly Guy

CareerTV, with the nation’s largest collection of recruitment videos online, continues to attract job seekers and employers. January was the best month for traffic yet with over 300,000 unique visitors! Over the last two months, the website has undergone a major re-design and the addition of new features, functionality and career videos. A wide range of user optimization tools have been added and as a result traffic has soared.
The market has embraced the use of recruitment videos and this has created a buzz in the industry”, says Jim Buttimer, CEO of CareerTV.


CareerTV addresses job seekers’ demand for career information through video, as well as the employers’ demand for a professional platform to communicate their brands. The company signed a number of successful partnerships last year with other leading sites targeting young professionals, including; Yahoo!HotJobs, CollegeRecruiter, AfterCollege, CareerBuilder, WetFeet, and InternshipPrograms. “There is a tremendous opportunity out there. With the overall number of online video views steadily on the rise, video is still growing very rapidly as a recruiting tool”, concludes Buttimer.

Starting in March, CareerTV will also begin producing a monthly 30-minute show highlighting different topics and industries - revealing the top-ranked employer. “This is a way to solidify our position as the #1 site for recruitment videos. The monthly show will air online and through other media distribution channels reaching a potential audience of 6 million viewers”, explains Sean O’Grady, Executive Producer for CareerTV.

    Is it naive to wonder why this is on every recruiting site ever? Why can’t companies just put their recruiting vids on YouTube for free?

  2. Michael W Teichberg Says:

    As of right now, only non profits are allowed to post their recruitment videos on Youtube. Anything else business-related is restriced.
