KarriereRegion.tv - the video job portal of the Karlsruhe TechnologyRegion
Finding employees who fit the corporate culture? It's easy with a job video. A job video lets future colleagues speak. They give interested parties a very informal job description and authentic insights into their working environment. A slightly different way to arouse sympathy and interest in the company.
The KarriereRegion.tv platform, which was created in a cooperation project between the Karlsruhe TechnologyRegion and the DER PUNKT agency, offers employers from the region the opportunity to publish short, authentic 1-minute videos. This allows employers to show their authentic and personal side.
