I think that's my concern - the interview process is where all of this takes place. It's the opportunity to see how a potential employee would fit into a proposed role. It's not scripted, and it's certainly not about how 'good' you are in front of a camera. In many respects getting a job can be about how good you are in an interview, but it's how your CV looks (essentially your experience) that gets you to the next stage. In my experience, CVs are a great way of QUICKLY eliminating people. I don't think this can be done by watching videos, and it would become an exercise in chosing someone that looks good in front of a camera. Sure, it may be able to site inbetween the interview and the CV, but it won't say add anything in my opinion (other than offer a few laughs).
