Early one morning, job candidate Matthew Henry emailed his resume and the link to his 5-minute Online Intro Video for a key IT position at Wynn Resorts. Harrington & Reed had produced his intro video, as we have done for hundreds of other top candidates.
Before noon, the Hiring Manager had called him saying he had watched it and was quite impressed, both with Mr. Henry's resume and with Mr. Henry himself on the video. He extended an invitation to join him for lunch at the hotel.
The hiring exec was blown away, not only with how professionally Mr. Henry was presented on the H&R intro video, but that Mr. Henry had used the new online video technology to accomplish his objective. The exec said he received over 200 paper resumes in response to his ad, but only one PERSON. He liked Mr. Henry on the video, and he liked him in person.
"Besides, if I don't hire you, I have to go back and deal with that huge stack of paper resumes and start the tedious process of trying to turn them into people too.", he said.
Bottom line: Mr. Henry got the job, and the other 200+ candidates never even got a second thought, much less an interview. Just another testimonial to the power and advantage of being seen and heard via the intro video. Only Harrington & Reed offers this amazing breakthough advantage to get good candidates enhanced visibility at the right level.
