Hii! I just wanted to thank you for all the effort you’ve put in to make life easier for us job searchers. I am currently looking for a job after finishing my BA, and your tips have helped me soo much in the recruiting processes. After watching almost every TH-cam and Tiktok video I feel much more prepared when having interviews, and I know what I should talk about now instead of just umming and rambling on like I did earlier. My dream is to work in HR, so it’s especially interesting to see your view on things, and learning so much while doing it. Thank you, Madeline!!
I’ve been binging your videos for interviews I had (recent graduate) and your videos have helped me immensely, I just want to say thank you and I appreciate the work you put in towards these videos!
Hi Madeline! I have been researching this topic extensively recently by watching vlogs and taking virtual workshops. Thank you for sharing your expertise! I'm happy to say that I love all of your content and have found it very useful, personally and professionally. I am excited to share this information with my clients!
i think in a video resume we should be in front of the camera and talk. we should show our energy, style, way of communication. when we just add a photo and then continue with some visual content, it is not so different than a PDF resume in my opinion.
Precisely. My previous employer requires us to do a video resume I made some customized template and all that shinanigan about video transition, basic text subtitles. Turns out the recruiter doesn't want it I have to ask her on her email I asked if graphics matters. She ultimately gave me an advice and learned a lot of stuff basically goes like this. -make sure you have good lighting -white background or any background as long as its not distracting -make sure there's no background noise -make the video short about 1 min if possible -just plain no fancy graphics Because at the end of the day this is just for recruiter the hiring managers doesn't give a crap about this things their more on technical questions. Update: I was hired this day. Turns out the video resume is just for them to check how you handle yourself (fluency, how you look, get general info from you).
Madeline: Since I found you on social media, I've learned SO much! Thank you very much for sharing everything you know with us! Hopefully I can land my dream job soon!!!
Thank you so very much for this. I had to do a "video pitch" as an assignment in my capstone class at university. This was a god-send. Consider me subscribed.
@@DanielNjora This is appropriate for any role right now due to high application numbers so it helps you really standout when clients are just getting piles of written resumes only!
Love the videos, Madelain. Big fan of yours. Having a lot of issues with the app, though. It is wreaking havoc on my laptop, chewing up 70%-98% of CPU when I do anything like upload or move small images to the canvas. Nothing else open. Anybody else having issues like this? It is a really nice concept. Wish it worked for me.
Should we be putting our face in the video resume? I know it’s frowned upon for paper resumes due to potential accusations of discrimination... would that apply here?
Miguel, absolutely you can or you can just use stock images, entirely up to you. If you do have some good photos of yourself then why not but most candidates just prefer stock with the text telling the story of their career for exactly the reason you mention.
Great tips for sure, but where is the part about how to download the video resume itself and how to send it. Why? because the size of the video when its downloaded needs to be quick enough to open on the future employers end and be able to be sent but not in a gigantic file. I wish someone could please tell me how from INVIDEO what i need to click on to do all this. Now that you didnt give us this info, i have to spend a lot more time looking for the answer. UGgg!
Hi Madeline. The video is really helpful. I have question though - are the videos to be used the actual videos while I am on the job or I can just get videos from google :)
Hello Madeline, Is it permissible to add a link to your youtube videos for educational purposes? I teach English as a Foreign Language for a non-profit organization, and your videos would be an excellent supplemental tool for the class lesson on 'building a resume'. I am very impressed! Thank you!
This seems amazing. But I am a high school student and I wondered if this was a good idea to send a video resume for my first job or should I send both my written resume and a video resume.
I would say send both! Don't forget to include any extra curricular activities like being on a sporting team for example as sport requires discipline & dedication and just helps to beef up your resume when you don't have a lot of work experience.
Just wondering if all these tips also work for different cultures. In example, I live in the Netherlands where it's frowned upon when presenting yourselves as an over the top achiever.
Hi Thank you for these video resumes I wanna ask can we share a video resume on the LinkedIn connection when we want to ask a job or a paper resume would be better??
Hello Madeline, thank you for this ridiculously easy breakdown. As a fellow Millenial, I must say I have always hated the video aspect of things. I fear I will be discriminated against because of how I look/weigh. My biggest question for you, which you might have covered in the past (but I have not found) is, how exactly would I send this to a prospective company when we are surrounded by ATS systems, and frankly finding the right recruiter in LinkedIn for the job seems like an impossibility. I really want to use this tool. Can you help me figure out the other part of this equation? Wi-Fi High-5 from the Mitten state
Put the link as a hyper link in your resume, cover letter, or email to someone in the company. Don’t look for the recruiter who handles the role, look for the hiring manager.
Does this actually work ? My wife thinks its corny, I've been thinking about making one just because my resume is not getting me ANY responses. It's tragic because I'm very skilled and talented.
No it's a waste of time to go through all that. You could just do your own TH-cam channel pick any background that you want to put in it do your resume as long as you want and then when you contacted employer that's interested you just send them the link to look at it. You don't need all the fluff
Such an original idea to make anyone stand out, killing it Madeline! Wi-Fi high five!!
Thanks!

Such a cool video and it helped me a lot to make it quick thanks Madeline
Cheeesy girl with her 'Wifi Hi5' LOL!! Great video. YT needs more qualiity videos like these.
This is a brilliant way to stand out from other candidates. Very helpful in these competitive times of looking for a job.
I appreciate that!
Branding yourself the right way is going to be the norm in the future and everyone needs to be putting in the work to do that.
Completely true!
My pleasure for your advice. I think video resume helps to take an attention to the candidate's profile.
Thank you so very much for this. I had to do a "video pitch" as an assignment in my capstone class at university. This was a god-send. Consider me subscribed.
Glad to help!!

Great information
Hello. What model of webcam (or video camera) did you use for this video? Thank you
Is it appropriate if I edit (put pictures and text) in my curriculum vitae?
thank you so much! You are great!

I would like to ask after finishing editing for export, is there a watermark in this web..??
Terrific info! Love being on the cutting edge in this industry. Did I miss the worksheet tho?

Your makeup was good
What subject line do you recommend to put in the email?
Just wondering if all these tips also work for different cultures. In example, I live in the Netherlands where it's frowned upon when presenting yourselves as an over the top achiever.
how can we add the video resume on LinkedIn if it should be customized? can we make it general?
The video is pretty interesting! please prepare sort video on ow to become success in getting online client. I got it too hard.
nice thank you :)
Hi Thank you for these video resumes I wanna ask can we share a video resume on the LinkedIn connection when we want to ask a job or a paper resume would be better??

Can I have the link of an app?
You can check out the description for the link and a discount :)
i need you prepare a new Digital Resume
Thanks
Hi Madeline ; I need to see if you can assist me with this.
but what if we are a job searcher, instead of professional.
Does this actually work ? My wife thinks its corny, I've been thinking about making one just because my resume is not getting me ANY responses. It's tragic because I'm very skilled and talented.
