The best kept secret to ace your next interview
Article Posted by: Apply4U
The digital world is being embraced by more and more people and that also means video resumes are becoming a thing of the future just ask @TikTok.
The rise of video Resumes
Research shows that chipotle, target, WWE and Shopify are among the companies embracing technology, it is considered that letting people show off their creativity is a great way to find new talent. We love this evolution of video resumes as a new way to stand out from the crowd but we also have to consider the possibility that not everyone will be comfortable with it.
It’s a priority to make sure our users are happy with our features and their Apply4U experience overall. When we created the video CV introduction it was part of our vision to give people a chance to use this feature without feeling the pressure of thousands of people seeing it online and rather they can have complete control over their job search.
The video CV intro experience
It is important to us that we are as honest with our customers as we can so that is why we wouldn’t want to advertise you something that we didn’t believe in ourselves. All our employees have used the video CV introduction so that when our customer service team are speaking to jobseekers they can be as authentic as possible because we have our own personal experiences with the feature and have found it to work really well.
Some may find it a bit nerve-racking at first because it is an unheard-of job search resource for most people, but once in front of your laptop and you’ve got through all 4 questions that are displayed on your screen which will take a matter of 10 minutes you will realise it makes you feel a lot more prepared when it comes to interviews.
We are not all naturally confident at everything so the video intro will have you feeling prepared without the feeling that you are being judged by a human being. Although yes the Apply4U technology assesses how you did with a soft skills report that will be sent to you it is only there to cheer you on with how well you did and give you the honest feedback needed to improve before you get real interviews coming through.
The Benefit Factor
• Increased comfort
• Give you more confidence before attending any interviews so you can improve your chances to stand out from the crowd.
• Helps you see how you come across
• Personality report

What is Apply4U's career advice call?
Article Posted by: Apply4U
Figuring out a career path that fits in with your goals and aspirations can be tough. It can feel like everyone else has it all figured out already but you need to remember that everyone moves at their own pace. It’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon and you’re on a path that only you can run towards.
Career advice call
- Speak with a Job search coach over a 45 minute call to understand your full career and education history.
- Discuss your job search and receive career advice and guidance to put you on the path that is right for you.
How it works
The career advice call is a paid part of our career coaching packages that offers career advice from a job coach.
What your career advice call will include:
• You’ll be asked what you’re looking for and why so that we can give you the best help and guidance to make your career goals achievable.
• Even if you’re a bit lost on which career path to go down, having a conversation about what your interests and hobbies will help your job search coach get a better idea of what you enjoy to find you a job role that you’ll love.
If help and guidance to make your goals become a reality is what you’re after then we highly recommend this service. Even if you haven’t figured out what your career goals are yet our job coaches will help you to start thinking about that.

How to master your job search?
Article Posted by: Apply4U
CV Advice
Career journey
Feelings that most people feel at the beginning of their career journey could be feeling Lost, frustrated, stuck and like they have no direction.
It’s our CEO, Irfaan Hussain’s passion to help jobseekers through their career journey because he experienced those same feelings when first starting out on his very own career journey.
A little bit of background:
Apply4U’s very own CEO came straight out of university, got his degree, and was feeling a little bit directionless on what career to go for.
He then got his CV out on some of the job boards and spoke to a recruiter.
His recruiter recommended him a job but he really wasn’t interested. Despite this his recruiter encouraged him to at least go to the interview and guess what?
That’s the job he ended up accepting. Never say no to an interview, that’s one of the most valuable lessons Irfaan learned.
CV/resume
RESEARCH
This is the first actionable step you need to take and this will help you build the foundation for your CV. This is where you will need to find out:
- What’s happening in the sector
- Job titles and keywords
- Your Strengths and transferrable skills
- Hobbies, likes and dislikes

Plan the structure
Your CV must follow a planned structure and this is going to make the information in your CV easier to absorb, so if you haven’t already get a notepad out and start noting these things down:
- Your Personal brand
- Career history and impact
- Education
- Hobbies
Put it all together
This is where the real magic happens. This is the time to do all those final checks to ensure there are no mistakes and that your CV stands out from the crowd.
Some things to consider:
- You’ve got less than 10 seconds to impress
- Make it look nice/Have a good font, a good layout, etc.
- Do a spell check, e.g. Grammarly and word.
- Try to keep it within 2 pages if possible
Job Search
Your CV is the best it can be, great!
But...
Don’t let it sit there collecting dust, it’s time to get job searching.
Register your CV on the job boards:
- CV library
- total jobs
- reed
- Apply4U.
Quick tip: Update your LinkedIn profile
Choosing a career
Search for jobs in your chosen industry and you should already have a job role in mind by now and, then your next step is to get a job alert set up.
The Application process
- Set yourself a target, for example: 5 or 10 jobs a day
- Apply to as many jobs as you can
- Be selective with your job search
Networking
Why should you be networking? Most job search advice talks about the importance of networking but not all of these resources tell us why it is so monumental to your job search.
Here’s your answer, it builds meaningful relationships bettering your chances to get hired. It is as simple as that.
How can I get started networking?
As I discussed earlier you should update your LinkedIn profile and once that is done you should build your network by finding new connections and joining some industry specific groups.
To successfully network with people you must remember these two things believe in yourself and think big, but be realistic and this is the mindset that will make your job search a success.
“Persistence overcomes resistance”
-Irfaan Hussain
Interview
Pre interview research
- Go to the website of the company and read a little bit about them
- Read the through the profile of your interviewer, use that language to your advantage to relate and to make a good first impression this can be a common interest like golf for example.
Star method
This is great self help method to use for when you’re stuck on a question.
Situation
Task
Action
Result
Body language and confidence
60% energy
22% tone
18% words
It’s not what you say it’s how you say it.
Rejection
It hurts but it’s important to maintain a positive mindset don’t let it knock your confidence because although you haven’t gained anything you haven’t really lost anything either. This way you can go into your next interview and smash it.
Mock interview
Practice, practice, practice
If you’re not going to see an expert , practice in front of a mirror or practice in front of your friends and family.
Have predefined stories and answers for the questions that are mostly likely to come up, and once again use the star method.
Quick tips:
- Use only positive words
- Talk in present or past tense
- Always sell yourself
- Fake it until you make it you don’t want to show that your nervous in front of the interviewer
- Give examples to back up your points

• We researched the best webinar time from online sources and changed our starting time to 5 pm so more people could attend.
• We worked on some of our content for the webinar and really placed the value added to the jobseekers as the number 1 goal of this webinar. We’re proud to say that we got some lovely comments and feedback from people saying they found it really useful!
• We gave one lucky winner the chance to get a free 1 to 1 coaching package with us to help them with their whole job search process.
What went well
• The delivery of our webinar and the flow of it all! We got some really positive feedback on it as a whole.
• No technical difficulties! These are always to be expected but this time we got through the full hour without any technical difficulties
