I think the lack of reciprocity is the issue for people, especially when it comes to uploading a video of yourself talking to an imaginary person.

Regarding price conversation, salary is always negotiable after an offer is made even when an employer says that it isn't, the applicant just needs to be willing to say no.

The video thing is dodgy. Being able to see the multitude of 'legally troublesome factors' of the initial applicants is making my inner lawyer scream. You can easily bias based on race, sex, wedding ring, kids toys in the background, location, religion, etc.
