CazVid was created to be a simple and easy to use video sharing app that connects candidates with jobs. CazVid allows you to quickly explore job openings and candidates in your area (or remotely). Use CazVid to introduce yourself and get the conversation started.
CazVid was specifically designed to be a simple video resume and video job posting application. At CazVid we believe that for certain jobs and services, traditional resumes are outdated. Video-based resumes are the best tool to showcase your charisma, communication skills and personality. We believe that with today's technologies and the right mindset from employees and employers, video job postings and video resumes are more useful than written resumes and job postings.
CazVid is available for IOS and Android (as of Android 9). It can be downloaded from the Apple Store and the Google Play Store.

The "Favorite" (star) option allows you to save videos that interest you. Click the favorite star on any video and it will be automatically saved to your "For Me" section. Use this option to remind you to contact the job owner of the video later. Favorites are only saved for you. The owner of the video won't know that you added their job as favorite. It is a simple tool to save the offers that grabbed your attention.
To protect the privacy of users who bookmark a video, users can only see their own favorites. Users should use the contact button to send direct messages to those they want to contact.
Use the "Follow" function to view current and future videos that a user may upload. The "Follow" feature is useful for candidates who found employers of their interests. This function will automatically notify them with new job offers of the employers they follow.

Good question, it is actually recommended. If you are an employer, you can record multiple videos to of the different jobs you have. If you are a candidate, considering applying for different jobs, you can upload different videos to show your different skills according to the job.
The videos need to have:
- If you are looking for a job/gig, introduce yourself in the video. Say who you are, describe your experience, and BE CLEAR about what type of jobs/gigs you are looking for.
- If you are looking for employees/freelancers, introduce yourself and your company. Say who you are, describe your company, and explain who you are hiring. Describe the job opening/gig clearly.
- Make sure that your written description is also accurate and explain what job you are looking for or what position you are hiring for.
- Make sure you categorize your video correctly, including the job category and location.
- Videos should be at least 15 seconds long.
- The person should be in the video (selfie video is acceptable), speaking clearly and be visible (with clear lighting).
- For job openings, showing videos or slides (in the video) of the place of business and adding text overlay is acceptable, as long as in addition, in the video, the hiring person/owner/manager is on camera for at least 5 seconds, speaking clearly, introducing themselves, their relationship to the business and describing the job opening.
- For job seeker video resumes, showing videos or slides (in the video) of the skills or the previous work of the job seeker, and adding text overlay is acceptable, as long as in addition, in the video, the job seeker is on camera for at least 5 seconds, speaking clearly, introducing themselves and explaining what type of work they are seeking.
- To our valuable friends with disabilities, while we do request that everyone speaks in their video, we understand that this may not always be possible. If you have a disability or condition that limits or prevents you from speaking in a video, please write in the video description that you have chosen not to speak in the video. You don’t need to specify the reason and you can choose the language you are comfortable with, but please write in the description that the video was submitted without voice (so we know it wasn’t a technical error).
- The videos and the written descriptions have to be in English or Spanish.
- CazVid can reject videos that do not look good (too dark or no visibility at all), or do not have good sound (the volume is too low, a lot of background noise, or no volume at all).
- Cazvid may reject videos that do not show a person (both employer and candidate) or that do not speak clearly. You can check approved videos for examples.
- CazVid may reject videos with watermarks from other social media networks, platforms or recruitment companies.
- CazVid disclaims the rights to reject any video, in its sole and complete discretion.
