Video Editor
📍 Location
Los Angeles 🇺🇸
Modern View Media founder Mark Salazar was looking to hire a Video Editor for his business.
Living in one of the most expensive places in the world, Los Angeles, means that hiring locally was simply out of the question for a growing business.
Modern View Media is a Southern California agency that creates premium visual content for real estate agents, including:
- Property photography
- Cinematic listing videos
- Social media reels
- 3D tours.
As the demand for high-quality content continued to rise, Mark found himself spending 2–6 hours editing every single video himself.
While he loved the creative side of the business, editing had become a bottleneck.
Every hour spent behind the timeline was an hour he couldn’t spend serving clients, winning new business, or growing his agency.
That’s where we came in.
We started with a discovery call to understand exactly how his business operated, the style of content he produced, and what type of editor would fit both technically and culturally.
Based on that conversation, we sourced candidates, handled the screening process, and presented him with a shortlist of highly qualified applicants.
From Mark’s perspective, the experience was simple.
“I got on a call, told you everything I was looking for, and you guys handled the rest. Then you gave me the best applicants, and we went from there. It was really smooth.”
The financial impact was just as compelling.
Hiring a part-time Video Editor locally in Southern California would have cost at least $4,000 per month, before factoring in additional employer costs such as healthcare, payroll obligations, and state employment regulations.
By hiring through HireUA, Mark was able to access experienced remote talent while significantly reducing his hiring costs.
More importantly, he gained back one of the most valuable resources for any business owner: time.
Instead of spending hours editing every property video and social media reel, he could focus on client relationships, business development, and scaling Modern View Media as demand for professional real estate content continues to grow.
When asked whether he would recommend HireUA to other agencies like his, his answer was immediate:
“100%. From beginning to end, it was a really smooth experience.”
For us, this project is a perfect example of what successful hiring should look like.
It’s not just about filling a position — it’s about understanding a business, identifying the right person for the role, and giving founders the freedom to focus on what they do best.
That’s exactly what we strive to do for every client we work with.
