Does MobileWirelessJobs play matchmaker?

Frequently we receive emails from Candidates asking us what we can do for them?

Do we ever match Candidates with companies?

Ok yes we sometimes do. Candidates email us Video Resume Content every day that we place in front of the best Mobile Wireless Employers. Our HR contacts within mobile wireless are second to none. Our videos however are strictly confidential. Content must adhere to our high standards or it will not be pushed to our clients.

That said, please do not lose sight of our main function here is that of a content provider; we specifically provide HR, job opportunity, labor reporting and analysis as well as Candidate profiling within the mobile wireless space. We'll text our candidates the details regarding private "job networking" events (as we learn of them) as well as notify our clients that certain high level Candidates are interested in their opportunities.

Yes - MobileWirelessJobs accepts Video Resumes!

ATTN: CANDIDATES

Yes, you can email us your Video Resume and we will Podcast this content for Mobile Wireless employers to see.

Again, please DO NOT include your contact info within your video resume. If the employer is interested, they will contact us and we will, in turn, contact you if you're interested. We will NOT publish any videos with contact info included.

Think of the Podcast Video Resume as a canned interview. This is your chance to get seen by employers before the traditional resume candidates are even considered. With your Podcast Resume Video, you won’t simply rehash your resume, but rather succinctly detail your unique qualifications in your industry.

Here are some RESUME VIDEO Candidate Podcast tips:

• Don't simply rehash your normal text resume
• Include only your first name and hometown. Do not include any other contact details. Employers will contact us and we'll notify you of their interest. If you agree to be contacted, we will then (and only then) release your contact details
• Discuss how you’ve overcome work challenges and include the specific challenges you faced and your unique solution
• Discuss how many direct reports you may have managed or projects you were given (backed with numerical data)
• Discuss what budget(s) you were responsible for
• Discuss why you feel that position you seek is the right fit for you and related topics

If you need help in creating the Video Resume, please contact us.

Right now, we have the largest archive of Video Resumes on the web in the Mobile Wireless industry.

What Not to Do on Your Résumé

What Not to Do on Your Résumé

From OWS Magazine | January 2007 Issue
By Carri Degenhardt-Burke

January 1, 2007 - Whether you're interested in becoming a branch manager or considering a jump into private wealth management, your résumé and cover letter will play a key role in landing that all-important interview. Avoiding a few common mistakes on these two-to-three pages--along with displaying proper interviewing skills and making follow-ups--could just land you that dream job. On the other hand, using poor grammar, not knowing your audience, applying the past tense instead of the present and writing "I" six zillion times will--more often than not--get your letter and résumé deleted, or sometimes even worse.

I have taken a look at the infamous Aleksey Vayner video résumé, which has been talked about on various Internet blogs and daytime talk shows. If you haven't seen the video--which shows Vayner performing feats such as weightlifting, tennis and dancing, voiced-over by a seemingly never-ending lecture on success and successful people--check it out on YouTube.
