A polished video resume can give employers a true sense of your personality and communication skills—but only if it’s scripted and shot well. Below you’ll learn how to craft a tight 90‑second script, turn a spare corner of your home into a mini‑studio, and deliver a confident on‑camera performance—using nothing more than a smartphone or laptop. Ready? Lights, camera, hired!
Time check: Read the draft aloud; trim anything that pushes you past 90‑120 seconds.
Practice until the flow feels natural, then hit record. Look straight into the lens, smile, and keep your energy up. Speak clearly, pace yourself, and don’t worry about minor stumbles—you can edit! Film multiple takes; choose the one where you feel genuine and confident.
Editing essentials: Trim dead air, cut false starts, add a quick title card and a closing frame with your contact info. Clean and simple beats over‑produced.
With a sharp script, thoughtful setup, and a few takes, you can create a studio‑quality video resume right at home. Content and authenticity win over flashy effects—so focus on delivering your story with clarity and enthusiasm.
