The Worst Recruiting Video Ever
I’m pretty sure this might be the worst recruiting video ever. I think Ernst & Young is a very good company, but this video would make potential employees run for the exits. OMG.
If you want to get candidates to join you, perhaps having a singer scream “Oh Happy Day!” for four minutes while your employees uncomfortably squirm and clap in the background isn’t the way to go. How about a little authenticity, guys? Contrast the “Oh Happy Day” video with this recruiting video by Connected Ventures. If you were an accountant looking for a job, which company would you like to join?
