Recruitment Video

Australian Trucker looking for a Job

I thought this was quite a novel video resume from a trucker in Australia.

When it comes to video resumes I am not convinced they will be the future, but used in the right context they can give you the edge I am sure.

What I did like about this video is it shows the driver at work, rather than someone talking through their cv. This could easily have been a welder or a bricklayer or any trade skill and in my opinion a better use of the format.

Now if I produced a video resume I am sure you would be bored within the first 30 secs.

Now whether this is a genuine video resume, I am not sure but I will be keen to see how he does.

  1. I think this is probably real but I would suggest any UK truckers doing the same type of video try and keep both hands on the wheel whilst cornering 🙂

  2. Great post. Keep us updated on how he does.
