    It might be an advantage to use 1st person. All the "I's" getting used could get annoying. I this, I that .. best to avoid that for sure.

    It's harder to say NO to someone in person so the more personal you make it the better. Get them to connect with you on a more emotional level then just some fictitious character in a story. If I had a video resume sent to me I would probably give it a second over. At least then I could see if the personality would fit in. Personality is a BIG factor 90% of the time for any job.

    It might be cool to take the approach as if you are somebody else presenting yourself like an agent. That could lead to some cool concepts.

    • Any more thoughts on 1st person resumes? I am thinking it's more or less the awful writing that sinks the ship.rayborn3000
