Horder Healthcare approached us with a brief for a recruitment campaign to help show what it’s like to work for the charity.
Post-COVID recruitment has become incredibly competitive, making it harder to find the right candidates for roles, forcing businesses to find new strategies in order to attract staff. Watch this interview with Josephine Trotter, Head of Marketing and Sales at Horder Healthcare to learn how the use of video has helped to boost applicant rates.
I think the videos have made our style of recruitment quite outstanding, nobody else is producing anything to the high standards that we are.
