Because they work. Statistics show prospecting employers actually watch 89% of video resumes, compared to the 75-95% of paper resumes which just sit unread in the in-tray (we've got our sources linked below). Video resumes also get you attention. Creatives are realizing video resumes can work beyond the job application. In fact, some entrepreneurial job seekers will put their funny video resumes online hoping to catch the attention of big fish like Google. In this tutorial, we’ll edit a video resume together and show you just how easy it is to create an eye-catching and job-winning video using the Biteable video maker. We’ll run you through some tips for how to make your video resume — or your CV as the Brits call it — jump off the screen. Our first tip is to be specific. Target an employer or a job you really want and make a custom video resume. With a custom video, you can respond to the specifics of that job description and greatly increase your chances of getting to the next round. With Biteable, it’s quick and easy to create multiple video resumes tailored to different job applications. Our second tip is to develop your personal brand. Choose a set of colors, sounds, fonts, and animations that represent who you are and use them throughout your video. A strong visual identity will help your potential new employer remember you. Our third tip is to treat your video resume like a Hollywood film. Cut in B-roll, use animations, and sprinkle in visual cues so the viewer is captivated the whole time. Don’t let your video resume linger too long on one shot. Our fourth and final tip is to think about the music. A slappin’ soundtrack will elevate your video resume to legend status, so think long and hard about the songs that represent you.
