A video resume is a brief account of a job applicant's professional experience, qualifications and interests, submitted to a prospective employer in video form. With simple edits on a computer, the candidate can direct and customize his video message to a particular employer and tailor his video resume for a specific job opening. The advantage of a video resume is that it allows a potential employee to demonstrate his public speaking, inter-personal, creative or technical skills to a potential employer in a way that a text-only resume can not.

Recruiters recommend that applicants consider including third parties on the video to talk about the candidate's strengths and accomplishments. They also recommend that before committing time and resources to creating a video version of a resume, the applicant should consider whether an interactive media application is appropriate to an industry. Relatively conservative workplaces in the legal or financial professions, for instance, are likely to be less impressed with a candidate's resume presented in video form than an advertising or fashion design firm. The most successful video resumes feature short, to-the-point answers, superior editing skills and often a dash of humor.

It's important to keep in mind that a video resume isn't going to get you a job. However, if can assist you in marketing yourself to prospective employers
