Video Marketing for Talent Teams

In this episode of the VMJPod Graduate Recruitment Series, hosts David Macciocca and Steven Nield speak with Stuart Clark, Early & Diverse Careers Manager at AustralianSuper. This is a deep dive into what it really takes to launch a graduate program from the ground up, embed inclusive practices, and scale across borders.

Whether you’re starting from scratch or looking to refine an existing strategy, Stuart’s story is packed with lessons for talent professionals working in the graduate space. 

Recruiting in FMCG is fast, high-stakes, and fiercely competitive. Whether you’re hiring brand managers, supply chain leads, or digital marketers, candidates are being courted by multiple industries and you’ve got one chance to cut through the noise.

What’s making a real impact? Employee video — and not just one type.

The most effective FMCG brands are striking a smart balance between polished, high-quality employer brand videos (often produced with agency support) and authentic employee-generated stories filmed in offices, stores, and manufacturing sites around the world. One draws candidates in with purpose and production value. The other builds trust by showing the real people and culture behind the brand.

In this blog, we break down how FMCG talent teams are using video to differentiate their employer brand, connect more meaningfully with candidates, and fill roles faster without compromising on quality or authenticity.

Not slick, scripted ads — but real stories from real employees that give candidates an unfiltered glimpse into the workplace culture and the meaningful work they could be part of. In this guide, we reveal the top video strategies transforming healthcare recruitment, helping you connect with the right people, build trust, and ultimately fill those vital roles faster.
