WorkBlast Provides Expert Tips for Video Resume Success
Phoenix, Arizona (PRWEB) July 18, 2007 -- The new realm of video resumes (http://www.workblast.com) holds exciting possibilities for job seekers but can be fraught with self-defeating perils as well. WorkBlast, a Personal Marketing & Networking firm, offers a list of ten tips for success.
Among the tips, WorkBlast suggests the following:
-Don't rely on video alone. Make sure to find a system that combines text and video to create the fullest picture possible.
-Clearly state why employers should hire you over other applicants. Know what your Unique Selling Proposition (USP) is, and deliver it with confidence.
-"Professional" Doesn't Mean Overly Serious: A video resume (http://www.workblast.com) can be unique and professional at the same time, so relax, have some fun and show your personality.
"Because video resumes are a relatively new career tool, people can really shoot themselves in the foot with common mistakes," said Nick Murphy, CEO of Workblast. "We offer the necessary platform to help people capitalize on emerging technology and distinguish themselves from other candidates."
The full list of video resume tips (http://www.workblast.com/video_resume_tips.html) is available at http://www.workblast.com/video_resume_tips.html
