Don’t apply to any job without a video resume!!! Is it obvious that we’re pretty big fans of video resumes?

The two most common questions regarding video resumes: 1) What should be said in a video resume? 2) How long should a video resume be?

According to the founder of CazVid, Yuvi Shmul, “With video resumes, less is more.”  Employers look at video resumes to get the first impression of a candidate.  The purpose of video resumes is not to recite every job, skill, and accomplishment, but to convey the candidates’ personality, communication skills, charisma, and level of enthusiasm.

“Video resumes should be up to 30 seconds” Yuvi adds. “In fact, video resumes are more of a video cover letter, video showcase of the candidate, or a job applicant video intro, if you will”  In these 30 seconds, the candidates should spend 10 seconds introducing their names,  10 seconds mentioning their general work experience, and 10 seconds explaining what type of work they are seeking. Video resumes should be a casual, yet professional, video introduction, that will prompt the employer’s desire to contact the candidate.

In a recent networking event comprised of small business owners from Arizona, Florida, California, Costa Rica and Israel, enthusiasm was shared regarding the CazVid platform. Several small business owners shared their challenges with finding qualified employees for their businesses as most job posting websites are expensive and job applications received are just not qualified for the position. Yes, the other job posting boards still charge the small business owners for “receiving” employment inquiries from unqualified job applications. Yuvi Shmul, the founder of CazVid and other small businesses explained that he wanted to create an easy social media platform that is free for employers and prospective employees.

Small business owners also mentioned that so many job applicants simply don’t posses the basic presentation and communication skills that the business required. Most small business employee tasks require interactions with customers, so regardless of the job requirements, candidates need to be presentable, show enthusiasm, and possess a high level of verbal and body language communication skills. Yuvi explained that hence the idea of a video only, or a video based, job openings and resumes app. Over the past two decades, Yuvi has interviewed and hired hundreds of employees, filling a variety of positions. During that time, Yuvi found that job candidates would often appear highly qualified on paper, but upon the first interaction it became apparent that the candidates did not possess the necessary communication skills for the job.  A video resume, or a video personal introduction can save a lot of time for busy small business owners who have to screen hundreds of prospective employees.

CazVid.com was founded by Yuvi Shmul with the vision of a free, easy to use, employment matching platform for small businesses, using a video based job board social media app.
