Whatchado and Jobiqo Combine Video and AI to Boost Social Media Recruiting

New partnership brings together short-form video content and intelligent reach automation for next-level social recruiting

Whatchado, the leading video-first job platform, and Jobiqo, provider of modular job board technology, have entered a strategic partnership to reshape social media recruiting. Their shared vision: to merge authentic short-form video content with AI-driven campaign automation for more visibility, engagement, and performance.

Whatchado has launched whatchado Reals, a new product featuring short, mobile-optimised video job ads built for platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and LinkedIn—ideal for reaching passive candidates with real, relatable content. These videos are enhanced by Jobiqo AIR (Automated Intelligent Reach), which distributes job ads automatically and intelligently across aggregators, Google, and all key social channels.

For existing Jobiqo clients, the integration is seamless – no technical changes required. This enables even smaller recruiting teams or publishers to expand into high-impact video recruiting with minimal effort.

“With whatchado Reals, we’re filling a gap in the market. We deliver high-quality, mobile-optimised video content right where target groups spend their time. Combined with Jobiqo AIR, we’ve created a product that’s not just innovative, it delivers results instantly.”
Jubin Honarfar, CEO whatchado

Benefits for Jobiqo clients

Existing Jobiqo customers can easily integrate whatchado Reals into their campaigns without any system changes or additional interfaces. The integration is seamless and supports the growing demand for social media recruiting with minimal effort. The collaboration is especially attractive for job boards, publishers, and media companies looking to offer modern recruiting solutions without using their own internal resources.
