  • Almost a full season later, Jose and Nicholas finally
    get around to doing their homework! In this episode, we watch and discuss three
    very different recruitment videos mentioned in our episode on “What Attracts
    People to Organizations” (Season 1, Episode 6). We talk about some of the key
    messages that organizations try to communicate through recruitment videos and
    what they can tell you (and not tell you) about the organization’s culture. We
    also discuss the limitations of recruitment videos in general and the
    importance of seeking information from other sources to help you learn more
    about your potential organizational suitor.
