Choosing the Right Camera for Your Hiring Manager Recruitment Video

Jobz is a powerful tool for hiring managers, and you don't need to break the bank on expensive equipment. Even if you’re a filmmaking novice (most of us are!) you can effectively use readily available cameras to make a great video. Let’s explore the easiest camera choices for hiring managers when recording recruitment videos.
‍

1. Desktop Computer Camera: Most modern desktop computers and laptops come equipped with built-in webcams. These are convenient for novice hiring managers, offering acceptable video quality. Ensure you have a clear background and a stable internet connection for smooth recording.

2. Personal Cell Phone Camera: Modern smartphones have high-resolution cameras that are even better for recording recruitment videos. Ensure your phone is held steady and well-framed during recording. You can also consider investing in a tripod or a phone holder so that you can easily make more videos as needed in the future.‍

3. Borrow or Rent a GoPro: If you want to up the ante, consider borrowing or renting a GoPro camera. GoPros are widely owned and known for their excellent video quality. They can be a great choice for more professional-looking recruitment videos as they have built in filters and settings to make your video look even more “cinematic.”.

In summary, you can definitely create effective hiring manager recruitment videos without expensive equipment. Choose from readily available options like desktop computer cameras, personal cell phone cameras, or explore the possibility of borrowing or renting a GoPro for a higher-quality recording. 

With practice and attention to how you can maximize the quality out of each option, you can confidently create great Jobz profile and attract top talent to your open job postings!
