Show who you are and be found directly by your new job!
Everyone who applies has already tried countless times to present themselves with all their facets of personality on an A4 page. Text modules from application consultants often help, but in the end all motivation letters sound interchangeable and your own character is lost again. But it doesn't have to remain the case that the current form of application still works like it did in our parents' time.
The video application:
As much as the buzzword video applications is spreading, there has not yet been a really consistent tool to create seriousness, structure and comparability. The idea that video applications have to go hand in hand with big “Hollywood” is not true. Rather, a video application should reflect what we present about ourselves when we go to the first interview - more concise, shorter, but still in picture and sound.
There is currently a visible trend among HR managers to pay more attention to personality and not just to professional qualifications - they don't just want to recruit staff for the company. You see yourself as a talent and knowledge manager and want to create talent pools with a broad set of different characters.
So if we want to portray our character, we should follow guidelines that can create comparability. There is the idea of depicting the process of a job interview in four parts - with “who I am”, “what I can do”, “what I want” and “what interests me” we can express everything an employer needs to know about us . On the one hand, we can take advantage of the trend towards video applications and at the same time bring structure to the process. In addition, the contextual framework of what is being said makes it easier for the viewer to concentrate on us as a person - viewers are less blinded by the appearance of the staging and presentation. We, in turn, can attract attention and make an impression because we are who we are.
Personality Matching:
However, video applications alone are not enough in the current situation with many job advertisements and few applications - especially in areas outside the cities, where many companies are based. Rather, it would be a great thing to convey a unique picture of the character with the help of further information from f. Employers, in turn, could become active and meet the need for talent in a self-directed manner. These are advantages that only integrated applicant platforms can offer. Who understand the search requirements of companies as equal to our desire for self-expression.
Today's life is individual, work should create meaning, which is why we enrich our own experiences with all kinds of internships and other professional experiences during our training. This individuality can be made visible with an unconscious personality test. Unconscious tests have the advantage that we are not tempted to “chase” the supposedly correct answers. In addition, we let the future employer know clearly how they can communicate with us, motivate us and use our strengths. Tests in which you have to answer questions are designed for consciousness and are therefore not really useful.
These personality tests serve as the basis for matching personalities with the company's requirements for their talents. The right matching ensures that an essential part of harmonious teamwork can be assumed right from the start.
Skillster has made this knowledge and the procedures that exist in the field of personality tests its idea. On the skillster portal you will find a fully integrated personality test, the ViQ®, which can be done in just 7-10 minutes and which shows the unconscious sides of your personality.
skillster is a young company that has thought a lot about the future of applications. We want to open up innovative ways on the job market to make your life easier in the future and perhaps increase ties to your work and job satisfaction for everyone. Then you no longer have to allow yourself to be squeezed into the confines of a job advertisement, but rather you will be found as a personality - just as you are. This allows you to integrate better into teams right from the start. The employer knows best what he is looking for and which characters he can offer special in his company. This also eliminates all the constraints of job advertisements, because in the future the employer will call you with a job offer. Since the employer has already seen your video and knows a short profile about your strengths and characteristics, the chance of finding something that fits together is higher than with the classic application route.
This means that nothing stands in the way of happiness at work.
