Consider a Video ResumeWe're not knocking a good ol' fashioned paper resume, but if you're looking to stand out, it might be time to consider a video resume.A video resume does a great job at showing off your 'undefinable qualities' such as warmth, clear communication, charisma, and off-the-cuff chatter. Before you go all-in on a video resume, you need to have a general direction. Here are a few routes you can take: Target a single employer: Trying to land that dream job? Tailor your video to a single company. Have fun with it or be as formal as you need to. Perfectly polished: You don’t have to be a video editor to create tasty visuals. Achieve polished results with a professional template. Edit this Biteable video resume template with your content and bada bing, bada boom — you’re the proud owner of a beautiful video resume. Interview yourself: If you wanna get really creative, you can interview yourself as Alex did in this video. The interview allowed her to show off her editing, storytelling, and presentation skills. Design prowess: If you're a post-production beast, you can make a video resume without using any video. What? Ya, check out what Josep did here. Multimedia for the win: Laura uses snippets of herself working in her video resume. Not only is it creative, but it's a great way to break up the video with different content. Social proof: Nothing better than someone vouching for you. Look no further than your LinkedIn endorsements. If you don't have any, hit up some friends or former colleagues for a testimonial. The folks at Biteable do a nice job breaking down creative ways to put your name out there. Check 'em out here.
