The problem

Three situations
HR faces every single day.

Anyone filling roles knows this reality — it's not new, but it's getting sharper. A job ad alone no longer cuts it in most markets.

01

Applications get lost

Job ads all look the same. What comes in often doesn't fit. What's missing: an impression that sticks and pre-sorts.

02

Competitors pay more

Larger firms lure talent with salaries you don't want — or can't — match. But salary isn't the only argument. Culture and people are.

03

Attrition costs twice

People who didn't know what they signed up for leave faster. Team frustration, vacancy costs, the whole process all over again.

shoot-day investment — produces all recruiting assets for 2–3 years

A job ad becomes a presence — one that shows why people don't just start with you, but stay.

The solution

One production.
Multiple recruiting channels.

1.5 shoot days yield the formats your recruiting actually needs. One visual language, multiple cuts, a consistent presence — from the careers page to LinkedIn ads.

Careers page 16:9

Hero version 90–120 seconds — the film that runs prominently at the top of the careers page and gives candidates their first real impression.

Job ads 9:16

Short versions 30–45 seconds for LinkedIn and Meta ads — vertical, sound-optional, with a hook in the first 3 seconds.

Social reels

Two additional reels from the footage for Instagram, TikTok and LinkedIn — employee voices, BTS moments, cultural anchors.

Who this fits

Teams that no longer
want to recruit by luck.

  • 01Companies filling roles the market is bidding against them on.
  • 02Teams that want to lower attrition and onboard new hires faster.
  • 03Brands holding their own against larger competitors in a tight talent market.

Typical trigger: Hiring push · generational change · new location · visible talent shortage

How we work

From HR briefing
to handover.

Six clean steps. Prep with HR runs deeper here than for a corporate film — and it pays off. Total timeline: 6–10 weeks.

01

Recruiting briefing

With HR and leadership: which roles, which audiences, which cultural anchors. Which candidates you want — and which you don't. The result is a sharp brief.

02

Casting & shoot concept

Selecting 3–5 team members, pre-interviews to build trust, a shoot plan without a script — instead, theme clusters and cultural anchors.

03

On-site shoot days

1.5 production days: interviews with the selected employees, cinematic B-roll of actual work life. No staged scenes.

04

Post-production

Rough cut, sound design, color grading, brand elements and subtitles — for the hero version plus every cut and reel.

05

Revision round

Joint review with HR and leadership, feedback consolidated, one agreed revision round with up to 90 minutes of editing time.

06

Handover

Hero version for the careers page, cuts for job ads, two additional reels — all formats ready to deploy across your recruiting channels.

Investment

Tailored
to your recruiting need.

I work without fixed packages. Pricing depends on the number of roles or departments, the locations, the depth of preparation and the additional assets you want.

In the first call we clarify exactly what you need — and you get a transparent quote built for your recruiting situation. No haggling over standard packages, just an offer that fits the bottleneck role.

For context: One unfilled skilled role quickly costs a company €20,000 to €50,000 per year — through lost revenue, team overload and onboarding loops. A recruiting video that fills one role faster often pays for itself on the first hire.
