But, once you have passed your course and have your licence, that is where the GuardPass app comes into its own.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019ve never created a profile or CV online, it might seem daunting, but we\u2019ll make it easy for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How to complete your worker profile on the GuardPass App\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/MPZl6KjP2lo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption>How to complete your profile<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>When you log in to the GuardPass app, you can create a profile in just five minutes by tapping the profile icon in the right-hand corner at the bottom of your screen.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll add your name and location, and you can add some work experience and educational qualifications. You\u2019ll also answer a few screening questions, such as if you have any military or police experience, a valid ID, or a full driving licence. Once your profile is created five minutes later, you\u2019ll be able to see it, and you\u2019ll also get to earn badges that can boost your skills and your profile.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019ll also notice you can record a video to add to your profile. If you do, you stand a 70% higher chance of getting hired.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this blog, we\u2019ve included a few tips to get you started launching a video profile for your CV.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many reasons to create a video profile. As we have said, you stand a higher chance of being hired, and that\u2019s because you will stand out from the crowd.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only some people have created a video profile, so a bored recruiter looking through written CVs will usually be intrigued to check out a video profile.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A video also gives the recruiter much more information than written words and a photograph. It allows you to show off your confidence, communication skills, and a little of your personality.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you are a shy person still working on your confidence and communication skills, then a video profile might not suit you at this stage in your career. However, a video profile is a good choice if you are confident and know how to sell yourself.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-tips-for-your-video-profile\">Tips for your Video Profile<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few tips for your video profile. You should wear what you would wear to an interview in your profile, so smart clothes are a must. It\u2019s also essential you film the video in a suitable environment. You need to make sure where you are filming is well-lit and quiet. You also need to make sure it\u2019s an uncluttered space. Sat on your bed with a pile of dirty clothes and dubious posters on the bedroom walls is not the ideal setting.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before filming, you should prepare the basics of what you will say. But you don\u2019t want to read from a script like a parrot, either. You should aim for your video to be around one to three minutes long. Here\u2019s what to include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The video should have a start, a middle and an end. To begin with, you should introduce yourself, why you have created your video, and why you would be an excellent fit for the role.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can talk about your previous experience in the middle part of the video. You could include a situation where you managed a situation well, and you can also include unique selling points you might have. These include additional experience and training you have, such as a full driving licence, martial arts experience, fire marshall or first aid training.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end of the video, conclude what you have spoken about and why you are the right person for the role. Thank them for their time, and ensure that you end the video with details of how to contact you on social media accounts, email or mobile.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The more professional you can make it, the better. So you might want to get a friend to help who can film your video for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With these tips, you should be well on your way to creating an eye-popping video profile.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"608\" src=\"https:\/\/www.get-licensed.co.uk\/get-daily\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Group-11131-coxpy-1024x608-1.png\" alt=\"Download GuardPass App\" class=\"wp-image-35089\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.get-licensed.co.uk\/get-daily\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Group-11131-coxpy-1024x608-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.get-licensed.co.uk\/get-daily\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Group-11131-coxpy-1024x608-1-300x178.png 300w, https:\/\/www.get-licensed.co.uk\/get-daily\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/Group-11131-coxpy-1024x608-1-768x456.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The GuardPass app is a fantastic springboard to launch your security career and search for work in the future.
