How about a 10-second job application? McDonald’s in Australia debuted a Snapchat filter that puts users in a virtual hat and badge. They film a 10-second Snap to apply for a job and begin the hiring process. Now this trend will move stateside as McDonald’s stores in the US seek to hire 250,000 workers this summer.

With 161 million daily users, Snapchat is a largely untapped resource for social recruiting and sourcing passive candidates.
