In competitive job markets, you need to up the ante to succeed. From the smallest of businesses to the largest corporations, meeting goals requires more innovation, efficiency, and plenty of hard work. The same can be said job hunting.

It’s even more true when you’re competing with large pools of candidates for the same position. You want to stand and establish your identity—that is, you personal brand. One great way to show yourself and your personal brand off is in a video resume. They’re easy to make, hard to forget, and offer a friendly way to expand on the points in your job applications.

You can show a short video of yourself stating what’s indicated on the paper resume, present your education and abilities in the form of a unique slide show, or combine the two. Better yet, make more than one type of video resume as well as videos that show samples of your work.

Of course, you need a place to showcase your strengths and abilities and there is no better place to do this than with your own, custom video player. Don’t make the grave mistake of using YouTube for this purpose. YouTube is built for content discovery, which means that when you share your resume there, you essentially invite prospective employers to be distracted from your brand.

With Vitomy, you can create custom video players that keep your viewers locked onto your content and engaged with your message. They can even share the video easily with their colleagues (maybe others who make hiring decisions) without losing any part of the branded experience.
