Numerous industries have changed or pivoted due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the ad industry is no different -- [Domino's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/food-women-selfcare-pizza) 'We're Hiring' ad spot highlights this change, as the pizza chain filmed a commercial entirely on [Zoom](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/room-for-zoom).

In a unique move, Domino's successfully highlighted its dedication to social distancing with an ad filmed on the video conference platform that's currently on everyone's radar: Zoom. In the ad, [real employees of the brand](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pizza-huts-new-commercial) stand in front of their laptops to tell the viewer that the company is hiring, spotlighting some of the perks of working for the brand, including making some money during this difficult time, and helping to safely put food on peoples' tables.
