What is a recruitment film for fintechs?

A recruiting film for fintechs and startups is a short, authentic video that makes your employer brand tangible for tech talent. It shows your team at work — in the standup, pair programming, at lunch in the office or remote. Unlike a classic corporate film, a recruiting film addresses potential applicants directly and answers the question: why should I join you instead of the competition?

How fintechs deploy their recruitment film

Career page

The first thing candidates see. Shows team, office and mission — before they read the first job ad.

LinkedIn campaigns

Short clips for employer branding ads. Reaches passive candidates in the feed who are not actively searching.

Social recruiting

Portrait-format reels for Instagram and TikTok. Reach graduates and junior talent directly on their smartphones.

Tech job boards

Embed the video on Stack Overflow Jobs, WeAreDevelopers or Glassdoor. Stand out in the results list.

Investor updates

Show your investors how you are professionalising employer branding. A strong signal for growth and team building.

Onboarding

Use the film internally to communicate your culture, values and ways of working to new team members from day one.

Whether you're looking for backend engineers for your payment infrastructure, product managers for your next feature or graduates for your growth team: your recruiting film becomes the strongest argument in the war for talent.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about recruitment films for fintechs

The price depends on the scope — how many shoot days and protagonists you need, how involved the concept and post-production are, and how many channels we're cutting for. A compact team portrait shot in a single day is calculated very differently from a multi-part recruiting campaign with vertical cuts for social media. We work out what makes sense for you in the initial consultation — for a first ballpark figure in 30 seconds, try our Cost calculator.

From concept to finished film it typically takes two to three weeks. Start-ups appreciate our fast timelines — if needed we also deliver in 10 working days. The shooting day itself takes one day, followed by editing, colour grading and sound design.

Especially then. Small teams can play to their strengths in the film: short communication channels, real ownership, direct collaboration with the founders. A video showing five people doing collaborative problem-solving appeals to many candidates more than a polished clip from a corporation with 10,000 employees.

Yes. We film in the office, co-working space or combine on-site footage with screen recordings and remote interviews. The result shows your actual working day — whether hybrid, remote-first or fully in the office. Authenticity beats setting.

All roles where culture and team are the deciding factors — which is almost all of them in a start-up environment. Video is particularly effective for engineering, product, design and data science. These are the roles with the longest time-to-fill and strongest competition. A good film measurably shortens decision time.

Yes — and that is exactly what we produce. One shooting day produces a long-form film for the careers page, short clips for LinkedIn, portrait-format reels for Instagram and TikTok, and versions for job boards like Stack Overflow or WeAreDevelopers. One shooting day, all touchpoints.

No. We work without teleprompter and without memorised texts. If interviews are part of the film, we prepare the questions together and lead the conversation so that your people feel comfortable. The best statements arise spontaneously — and those are exactly the ones we cut in.

A pitch video is aimed at investors and shows market opportunity, product and traction. A recruitment film is aimed at applicants and shows team, culture and working day. Both formats use storytelling, but with completely different target audiences and messages. We produce both — often even on the same shooting day.

Our team arrives in the morning with their own equipment at your office. We accompany your working day — stand-up, deep work, lunch break, team discussions. Everything happens alongside your normal operations. We place interviews in quieter slots. By the end of the day we have the raw material for all formats in the can.

The most important metrics: views and dwell time on the careers page, conversion rate to the apply button, time-to-fill before and after launch, LinkedIn engagement and qualitative signals — for example when candidates mention the film in the interview. Strong employer branding can reduce recruiting costs by up to 50%.
