I’m still searching for a job. On some of these applications they want a 1-3 minute video of me just answering questions to myself and send it in. If feels scammy, but maybe I’m just not doing it right. What do you do?

    No, absolutely not. I’ve had one employer try that shit with me and immediately withdrew my application. They basically have AI review your video and judge you based purely off of your physical characteristics. Honestly I don’t know why an employer would want to open themselves up to the liability of using such a tool. Ultimately, if my application isn’t worth the time and effort of an actual person to review, then I’m not interested in your position.
