TikTok change background in videos

TikTok has launched a new feature in the United States that allows users of the social network to sign up for job offers by sending a short TikTok video that would work as a resume or cover letter.

TikTok allows you to create video resumes of up to 60 seconds to access job offers

The tool, which is called “Resumes” (in Spanish, resumes), will be available throughout the month of July on the platform, and depending on the results obtained with it, it will be officially established and could be launched also in other markets.

With this novelty, TikTok would be entering the field of Human Resources and even competing with LinkedIn. This new function will allow users to access selection processes through the app. For now, TikTok has invited a small number of companies to place their job ads on the social network. Among them are Chipotle, Ali Yoga or Shopify.

The way to upload a resume to TikTok is very simple. All you have to do is record a clip of up to 60 seconds in length – for now, unless TikTok extends the duration of your videos, as expected, up to 3 minutes – commenting on experience and training, as well as skills work that they have, and upload the video to the profile using the hashtag #TikTokResumes.

TikTok has also created a specific website with tips to make more attractive resumes on TikTok, and also in it you can search for available job offers among those that have been published by companies participating in the program.

When a user finds one that interests them, they just have to send the link to the video-resume that they uploaded to their profile. You can also attach the link to your LinkedIn page, if you wish. Interestingly, TikTok does not allow for the moment to apply for a job on TikTok by sending the TikTok video-resume.
