Digital Story Telling World - Job Applicant
When you are competing with so many people for jobs, just getting your application noticed can be a challenge - the trick is to find a way that makes your application stand out and then be so compelling that they will want to interview you first. How about making your application a talking application with your own voice and your own photos?
With digital photography possible on all sorts of devices that we carry around now, it is pretty easy to put together a small collection of shots that reflect the key messages you want an employer to know about. What you look like, something really great you have done, someone giving you a prize or an award or the prize or award itself - you get the picture…
You gather these pictures together, put in some clever transitions and movements and tell the story you want the employer to hear. "I won this prize for brilliant customer service - I would like to bring these skills to your business" or whatever you think is going to present you in the best light.
Or take a photo of the place you want to work with you standing there saying, "imagine me in your business, I can".
How impressed do you think the prospective employer might be? Not just because you are standing out from the crowd but because you have bothered to go the extra mile with your application.
It is hard to describe digital story telling until you have a go and realize how easy and fun it can be. People will be so impressed at the effort you have taken. Better not tell them just how easy it was!
