Unhappy Creaking noise coming from front brakes

Trying to figure out why I am getting a creaking noise on front brakes after having new OEM pads installed. Bought the pads from dealership and had installed at a local Midas. Only happens during light to medium braking, any speed. Took back to shop twice, and all they can do is put some type of lube on it - which works for 1-2 weeks. Sounds almost like a metallic sound. Did not have this issue prior to having pads replaced and tech says everything is tight. I was told it could be improper contact with my rotors/ warped rotors. I have about 50k on the car with resurfaced original rotors, so maybe. But they weren't event sure if that would fix the issue.

I posted a video below. I have another one I could post if that would be helpful. Any ideas? I need to get it fixed because I feel like I'm rolling around in a POS. Not a G.

Here is another video incase that helps. You can really hear the noise in the last 10-15 secs of the video. And at highway speeds, its the exact same noise just repeated a lot faster

And if anyone is wondering, yes there is a doughnut on the car. Got a flat 2 weeks after I started to notice the noise. Still getting the same noise with new rubber on the car.
