There is a new bad boy in town in the realm of free classified listings, and employers could not be any happier. The newest trend to really start making its way across the internet, and is starting to show up on many of the free classified listings, is online video classifieds. What are these? They are basically sites that allow users who are looking for a job to upload a video of them which is displayed to employers who are seeking a new employee.
Online video classifieds are great for both parties involved
An employer can see what values and demeanor a prospective employee may have or be lacking. On the other side of the coin, the job seeker can really do their best to impress a potential employer. Both sides ultimately win with online video classifieds because they both get a chance to have an informal interview, before the actual interview—weeding out the possibility that they are not a good match, and saving both parties much time and frustration. Will this trend become a big one? Only time will tell!
