ATLANTA – Ask any HR representative or hiring manager with an open job posting what the recruiting process is like these days and they will tell you they are inundated with applications and resumes. With the rise in unemployment and increased competition for open positions, job seekers have to find a way to stand out in the crowd. A new US-based company has created a tool for job seekers that will increase their visibility and give them a leg up on the competition with the click of the send button.
eVesume rolls audio/video messaging into a sleek e-newsletter format that will catch the attention of hiring managers, recruiters and key decision makers everywhere. The product is on a mission to change the way resumes will be delivered in the future. Gone are the days of printed resumes on cream-colored stock. Video rules in a video world.
How does it work? Job seekers create their own video message and post it to YouTube. Then with a quick upload of their picture and resume and an easy voice recording by telephone, eVesume creates the custom e-newsletter video marketing package for an affordable $79 investment.
According to David Schmidt, this is the wave of the future. “We live on a multi-media planet. Video permeates the information landscape of the world today,” says David Schmidt, President, eVesume. “We created the system to easily customize a video resume in a polished, professional and attention-grabbing electronic email format.”
