For Graduates

  • What is a video CV?

    A video CV is a short video where you introduce yourself, showcase your skills, personality, and explain why you're a great candidate. It allows employers to see and hear you directly, making a much stronger impression than a traditional paper CV.

    Your video CV helps you stand out from other candidates and gives employers a better sense of who you are as a person, not just what's on paper.

  • How do I create a video CV?

    Creating your video CV is simple! First, register on our platform by providing your basic details, email, and password. Then, upload your profile picture and traditional CV if you have one.

    Finally, record or upload your video CV (up to 2 minutes). We'll guide you through the process with tips on what to say and how to present yourself professionally. Once complete, your profile will be visible to employers!

  • Is there a cost to register and create my video CV?

    No, registration is completely free for graduates! You can create your profile, upload your video CV, and be discovered by employers at no cost.

    We believe in making graduate recruitment accessible to everyone, so there are no hidden fees or charges for candidates.

  • How long does it take for my profile to be reviewed?

    Once you complete your registration and upload your video CV, your profile is immediately visible to employers browsing our platform.

    Our team may also review your profile to ensure it meets quality standards, but this doesn't delay employers from viewing your video CV and contacting you directly.

  • What should I include in my video CV?

    Your video CV should include a brief introduction, your educational background, relevant skills and experience, why you're looking for a graduate position, and what makes you unique. Keep it professional but let your personality shine through!

    Aim for 1-2 minutes, dress professionally, ensure good lighting and sound quality, and speak clearly and confidently. Be yourself and show enthusiasm for your career.

  • Can I update my video CV after registration?

    Yes! You can update your profile information, upload a new video CV, or make changes to your existing details at any time through your dashboard.

    We recommend keeping your profile up to date with your latest skills and experiences to attract the best opportunities.
