There is an opportunity to include video in many parts of the Vervoe process:
- Within the Vervoe assessment: uploaded as an intro or in any of the questions.
- Welcome screen (for invitation via link): If you are sharing via a link, this introduction will give your candidates details about the assessment before signing up.
A short video at the start of your Vervoe assessment gives candidates a clear sense of the role and process, increasing engagement and completion rates. It also sets expectations and creates a positive first impression.

Implementation Tips
All videos should be 1–2 minutes max.
Welcome screen messaging should complement the video, not duplicate it.
For each role, decide whether the focus is role, process, or culture, then pair with the matching message style.
Optionally, you could mix elements — e.g., a role + culture video, paired with a concise process-focused welcome message.
