You can be creative, within reason. As long as what you say will be perceived as a positive or minimally neutral (i.e. not negative) to your audience, be as creative as you want. But also remember that a video is broadband in distribution, meaning that you don’t have full control over who might view it.
You can practice with a basic script, but do your best to avoid using the script during the actual video, since you would end up losing eye contact (unless you have a professional teleprompter) and it will make you appear less natural. Try your best to be conversational and personally engaging.
This this very professional and you make it look so easy!
When doing a video resume can I be creative or just down to the point?
I know you said not to script your resume, but does it help to write down what you want to say before you make the video? I some times find myself recording over and over if there is a problem or something I don’t like about my video. Is there anything I can do to make my videos professional like yours?
Yes, depending on the employer. Old school, possibly not. New school, high tech, it can be a differentiator for you.
Hey thanks this helps a lot!!! Um can you really use the Video Resume method for applying for jobs?
