The document discusses the author's experience with video interviews for job applications. In 49 applications, 22 went unacknowledged and impersonal responses were received up to 6 months later. The author believes they are well-suited for video interviews since they have a vibrant personality that cannot be conveyed through resumes or cover letters. The document questions how employers can truly know candidates without video.
4. I’ve Completed 49 Job applications
22 were never acknowledged
Impersonal responses were received
up to 6 months later.
5. I believe I am precisely the type of candidate that
video allows to shine. I am confident that I am
much more than bullet points on a resume and I
am far more dynamic than even a stellar, well-
written cover letter can convey. I am a person
with a vibrant personality that none of my other
applications ever allowed me to demonstrate!
