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.
