Short answer: Sam Nadler says the recruiter uploads the video and pastes the Ntrvsta transcript. AI finds nine clips across English communication, role fit and personality and drive, and the recruiter trims about three into a reel under one minute.

Sam Nadler [4:26]: I know I'm not that great at creating names, but you basically drop in a video. I have one prepared here. And as soon as it loads, this is a candidate that took an Ntrvsta interview within the last forty eight hours. You just hit next. You fill in the candidate's name, and then you fill in the title. And then you take the transcript, which from the Ntrvsta interview, and you paste it right in here. And this was all my design. Not sure if it's the best design. The beauty of putting in the transcript is with AI, it will analyze the transcript and identify their best responses, their best little sizzle clips. So I say find best clips, and it'll give me nine clips theoretically based in three different categories, and there's probably a few different ways I could have thought about this, but this is kinda how I approached it. So as you can see, it already generated those clips for me. So the first cohort of clips is on English communication. The second cohort of clips is on role fit, and the fourth I'm sorry. Third cohort of clips is on personality and drive. And as you can see, there's, like, this wave format.
Sam Nadler [5:40]: There's probably an even more automated way of doing this, but I wanted to provide some editing tools for our recruiters to really identify that clip of the candidate that made the most sense, that put them in the best light, that really highlighted either their communication skills, their technical skills, the project management skills, whatever. So you have these little clips, these little editing things you can work with here. But, basically, the recruiter, puts in the transcript, then can listen to these clips, adjust them a little bit so they don't end on an, or something like that. And then once they find kind of the three best clips and you could add more. You could make it six, but generally speaking, I'm trying to keep these two under one minute. As you can see here, it's forty three seconds, and I've selected three clips. So, generally speaking, three clips is around fifteen seconds each. Maybe you could get away with a fourth one. For the purposes of this demo, I'm not gonna go through each clip and listen to it, but you just hit next. You get a preview so you can see, the candidate name, the role.
Sam Nadler [6:47]: You could choose the aspect ratio. 90% of the time, this is for, a link within an email, so landscape feels appropriate. You can do a preview. Now the video won't be rendered in the preview, but you could theoretically see the graphics and the audio just to make sure it flows naturally. And then next, and then you can just get a render settings and then begin to hit the render of the video.
