How can you give yourself a little edge in this world of too much and too many? We here at Outpost Worldwide have re-invented the wheel, so to speak. The solution is the Video Resume! Let’s say you’re an actor with a video resume, and I need to hire an actor for my next movie or commercial. First, I call my favorite talent agency. I explain to them what I want and they proceed to send me numerous resumes, about 30! There are headshots in each one and a page or two of experience. I choose a few to bring in for a reading, but one catches my eye. This one resume has a link to a ‘video resume’. Interesting. As I push the headshots to the floor, I think to myself, “I should take a look…”

The benefit of having a Video Resume is that it gives you another tool in your toolbox to show potential employers your talents and personality. A producer or director can get a great sense of who you are and how you look on camera just by going to a talent agency website and watching your Video Resume. If I want to check out actors at 2 a.m. then I can. An interview style of ‘in your own words’ lets me know who you are and can give me a sense of your voice and mannerisms. Then, when you are called in after the producer has seen your Video Resume, your confidence factor should skyrocket! You can relax and enjoy the process. If you get just three gigs from this one Video Resume, then it is absolutely worth it! Of course, three is a conservative estimate…

The same can be said for anyone looking for a new career. No one can sell you like you. Tell people what you can bring to the table. Let them see your conviction. STAND OUT! Job Headhunters would be thrilled to have this kind of media to help them help you in your pursuit of career attainment. When this lands you the job you want then it is a “no brainer”. As always, we can talk more about this and other things that might interest you. Email or give us a call.
