Evidently video resumes are suddenly all the rage in the press, and they keep finding the one I posted last year and calling me for interviews. No complaints here. Francesca Di Meglio, a reporter for BusinessWeek magazine, is the latest to call and was even kind enough plug Real Nice Software. Here is a link to the online article for your reading pleasure, and an excerpt from the part where she mentions me:

One of the résumés on YouTube belongs to Allen Ulbricht, a 2003 graduate of Georgia Tech’s undergraduate management program, whose video has him dressed in business casual attire and responding—as naturally as possible—to likely questions for a Web 2.0 gig to which he was applying in December, 2006.

Now the owner of Real Nice Software, which creates custom software for small businesses, Ulbricht says he pulled himself out of the running for the job but is sure his video, an adjunct to his traditional online résumé, would have given him a leg up on the competition. Video will become an expected part of the job application, says Ulbricht, even if it will never replace traditional, written résumés.
