show thyself

Careerbuilder’s pitch:

We’ve Got Video Resumes!

This is your chance to show an employer the things they can’t see in your resume – Make It Count!

Ever thought, “If I could only get an interview, I know I’d get the job”? This is your chance!

Reminded me of Reese Witherspoon’s Harvard Law School application in Legally Blonde.

    You know, they could always let people showcase their portfolios – would be more useful than having a video resume. Not that it is a bad idea per se.

    metlin – used right, this could revolutionize the way HR works. But see, as new ideas tend to get misused quick – Elle’s video popped into my mind.
    Imagine the flip side to the why’s of a person getting hired or not.

    KC – lol, illey. I think it’s cool, just wary.

  3. Rads – My reaction to this would be the same as to video conferencing – Good Lord, I hope it never catches on. In a million years.

    Pilgrim – I think that was Groucho Marx that said it, but a quick Google search showed both Groucho & Woody Allen.
