Produce a video.

A video resume allows the hiring manager to get a feel for your personality before meeting you in person. And since likeability and cultural fit are often high priorities when considering a candidate, introducing yourself via video can put you ahead of your competition. If cameras and editing tools aren’t your strong point, it might be smarter to skip this option. Alternatively, consider a tool like Hello There that does some of the legwork for you.
