Video Resume
A video resume is a short video that introduces yourself to the hiring manager or recruiter. It can be submitted in addition to a traditional resume and cover letter and is typically 30 seconds to two minutes long. You may consider including a video resume in the following situations:
- It’s required by the employer. Some companies may ask for a video resume to provide an “elevator pitch” for why you are a strong candidate.
- You’re applying for a creative role. If you’re pursuing a job in a creative field, such as graphic design, video production, or marketing, a video resume can showcase your creativity and skills.
- You want to highlight your communication skills. A video resume can be a great way to demonstrate your public speaking, communication, or interpersonal skills, which might be critical for roles such as sales, customer service, or management.
- You have a strong personal brand. If you have a well-defined personal brand, a video resume can help you reinforce your image and make a strong impression on potential employers.
- You want to stand out from the competition. In competitive job markets, a video resume can help you differentiate yourself from other candidates and leave a lasting impression.
However, it's important to keep in mind that a video resume should complement, not replace, your traditional resume. Make sure to tailor it to the specific job you're applying for and keep it professional and concise.
Get feedback
Review your final cut a few times to ensure the video is clear and organized. You can also ask ManPower Placing to review your video resume as well. We can provide you constructive feedback to improve the video and make a stronger impression.
Tips for making a video resume
Here are some tips to consider when preparing for and recording your video resume:
- Focus on a specific experience or skill. Because your video resume will be so short, it’s most effective to choose a single topic to focus on. You may talk about a specific project you did very well on or demonstrate a specific skill, such as coding a website. Complement your resume and cover letter by addressing an element only discussed in one of those documents.
- Discuss an element not in your application. If there was an element that you left off of your resume or cover letter, such as a volunteer experience or specific skill, consider demonstrating it in your video. You can consider talking about a hobby or interest. Make sure you show how your interest is related to the position, company, or industry you are applying to, or how the skills you learned through your hobby help you excel at work.
- Dress professionally. Consider dressing like you are going to an interview. Wear neat, workplace-appropriate attire, such as business casual clothing. You may even consider wearing the attire you would while at work. Try to wear colors that complement the background or setting in which your video takes place to ensure you and your speech remain the focus of the video.
4. Review the employer’s guidelines. If an employer asks for a video resume, be sure to follow any instructions they provide for content, length, editing, or submission. Some employers may ask you to follow a prompt when making your video resume, so be sure that you adequately address their expectations in your video.
