I've watched DD edit and put together videos and I'm pretty sure that I couldn't do it. Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/application-video#post-1310490 Tue, 22 Jul 2014 01:51:55 +0000 annagybe 1310490@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/application-video#post-1310112 Mon, 21 Jul 2014 18:24:58 +0000 Isis 1310112@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a great video, Desmo! &nbsp;I would hire you; brilliant to include your dog! &nbsp;Let us know how it goes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/application-video#post-1310106 Mon, 21 Jul 2014 18:17:45 +0000 Desmo April 1310106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Finally sent my video off. I wound up dedicating my whole weekend to it but at least I learned a lot. </p> <p>I worked out a storyboard, planned my shots and actually edited the whole thing. It was basically a get to know you video so I mixed in some of my work background and things I like to do. </p> <p>I spent some time researching the company. Searching tags on instagram turned up some casual shots in the office. Through that I learned that the owner's dog comes to the office sometimes. The pup had a birthday party there so I added my awesome mini Aussie Morgan to one scene. I also talked about making music because I wanted to show my creativity not just say I'm creative and used a clip of me playing guitar at a local club.</p> <p>I might not get the job but I'm proud of my finished product and like I said I learned a lot which can only help me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/application-video#post-1307519 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 23:39:15 +0000 abc 1307519@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No advice or ideas. Just feeling really old here (in my mid-late 30s). Sigh. Good luck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/application-video#post-1307434 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 21:30:07 +0000 Desmo April 1307434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the ideas. Some of the postings are crazy. As part of their desired skills one job listed having over 1000 pinterst followers.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/application-video#post-1307337 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 19:20:41 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1307337@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've seen that in a few job listings recently, as well as other trendy takes like taking a picture that represents you (i.e. not of yourself, of something in your environment, very snapchat/instagram). </p> <p>To be honest, I think a) the company is just asking for a discrimination lawsuit and b) I don't want to work for anywhere that forces you to do gimmicky stuff like that, but I know that sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. <a href="http://askamanager.org" rel="nofollow">AskAManager</a> is usually my advice source for job-related stuff like this - you could post a query on the Friday open thread and ask if anyone has had to do something similar. I suppose I'd just make a list of what you'd say&nbsp; in reply to a similar question at the job interview, rehearse it a bit, and then shoot a quick video. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/application-video#post-1307327 Fri, 18 Jul 2014 19:11:06 +0000 Desmo April 1307327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was laid off from my job in publishing so I've been working on finding a new one. The latest development, I need to send in a video expalining why I'mthe right fit for the company. I am completely stumped. The job is a project manager at a boutique ad agency and from what I found online the office looks cool.</p> <p>Any advice or ideas?</p> <p> </p>
