Hilton wants job applicants to send a TikTok video, not their CV

Hotel operator Hilton Australasia is asking job applicants to ditch their CVs in favour of video applications on social media app TikTok, as the rise of artificial intelligence tools like ChatGPT raises questions about the value of traditional applications.

Hilton has asked candidates to create a 30-60-second video on TikTok that lets the company know which role they’re applying for and how they would go “above and beyond” to ensure guests have a good stay. Applicants must also tag @hiremehiltonau in their posts and use the hashtag #hiremehilton.
