Recording a Video Experience

Select applicants may be invited to record a video experience within the platform. If the Kindly Human Care Team contacts you about recording a video experience, here are some key guidelines for recording a great video experience.

• Record in vertical mode on your phone, ensuring your face is centered with space above and below.
• Hold the phone at eye level to maintain natural eye contact.
• Pick a quiet location with a neutral background—avoid distractions, clutter, or other people in the frame.
• Keep it professional yet friendly by avoiding logos, hats, profanity, or slang.
• For a smooth flow, start by introducing yourself—first name only—then share your story, how you overcame the challenge, and a message of encouragement for others. Speak naturally, as if you're talking to a friend!
• Avoid doing multiple takes and splicing the clips together.  Jump edits can be distracting to the viewers. Fluid recordings are ideal.
