Shameless Self Promotion

As well as trying to find freelance work as a copywriter and taking over as editor of the Manchester hub of Creative Boom I am also looking for a job.

My CV looked a bit like my previous employment; boring. So I tried something on Prezi and tested my patience converting it to a video.

See what you think (give me a job!)

I also have a bio over on the blog pages of Creative Boom



Thanks to the wonderful Tim Slater for the drawing!

It's pretty cool, but the presentation of the financial jobs makes them seem pretty bland. Not really something a recruiter would want to see I guess. Also, some music and/or noise would liven it up.

Thank you! To be fair; they were pretty bland! :)

It's only a first go - it took forever making it into a video so a few things need to be improved.

Thanks for the stuff about music. I do have some that goes really well with it but I'd heard so many conflicting opinions on whether employers would like it or not. My flatmate says when people look at stuff like show reels and whatnot they often turn the sound off and find it irritating - so I didn't add any, but I do think it'd be good in this case.

When I remember how to edit and make into a video I'll get some changes made!
