IT Employment Expert Stephen Van Vreede Says Go Ahead With Your Video Resume, But Don’t Send It Unless It’s Perfect

Rochester, NY — Sep 21, 2015 — Stephen Van Vreede, CEO of ITtechExec, published a new blog post titled “Should You Have a Video Resume?” In the post, he explains that video resumes are indeed a good way of distinguishing oneself from the crowd, but they are a risky move that requires detailed care and attention in order to be successful.

In a competitive IT and tech job market, candidates who don’t cut it often won’t even receive a polite rejection letter. (The nerve!) One work-around to the drudgery of resume submissions is creating an impressive, highly individualized video resume. But how do you know if a video resume is going to get you the job—or turn you into a laughing stock?

You should only create a video resume if it fits the culture of the company and position where you’re applying.”
