Embed Videos on your Recruitment Website

Recruitment Videos

The process of adding videos to your recruitment site is perhaps much easier than you might think and they can add significant interactive value to your website.

The production process for creating a video can be time-consuming and expensive, yet it only takes a few seconds to make the video sequence appear on your web page.

Let's clarify a small detail, because we are talking about embedded videos which are hosted by a video channel provider and the videos are not actually uploaded into the recruitment websites at QuickontheNet.com. However, when someone visits your website, the videos appear as part of your web page, even though the actual videos are hosted by another company.

In other words, QuickontheNet.com hosts your recruitment web pages and your video company hosts your videos. To illustrate the point, we have embedded 'Big Keith's Appraisal' video from BBC Worldwide of 'David Brent : The Office' for your entertainment. On this occasion, 'The Office' video is hosted by YouTube.

You can embed videos from any video host, providing they offer the functionality to embed videos.

The process of embedding videos you have created yourself is exactly the same as embedding videos created by other artists and producers. If an artist or rightsholder does not want their videos shared and embedded, they will simply turn off that functionality. For example, many leading international music artists turn off the function to allow other people to share and embed their videos.

 

 

How to Create a Searchable Video Gallery

Again, this is much easier to achieve than you might imagine. You can create a searchable gallery of YouTube videos (or embedded videos from other sources). For example, you could create a gallery of demonstration job interview videos for your new employment site.

No special set-up is required and you can embed videos on your gallery items at any time. In fact, you can even add videos to your job description pages.

For example, let's assume you are a recruitment consultant and you are working on a large recruitment campaign to hire cabin crew for Virgin Atlantic. With that in mind, as a recruiter it would only take a few seconds to add some existing Virgin Atlantic videos to your job postings and suddenly your job description pages would come to life with interactive video, as per the example below:

How to Embed Videos on your Recruitment Web Page

If you want to embed videos, here are the steps for adding code to your web page:

  • If you are editing a 'Page' or a 'Gallery' item, just click the small 'HTML' button (on the right-hand side).
  • Now 'Paste' your video code into the window.
  • Click 'Update' and 'Save' (at the bottom).
  • And that's it!
  • Now you should preview your website to view the video.
