I like to think that doing a video can be a fair exchange for having an amazing adventure - well I hope applicants for our position think so! If you want to see some of the candidates videos to see how much they have invested we now have a website http://www.entirelyworldfamous.com I would be interested to see if you still think they have wasted their time - we don't! We think they are great :) Hi
