There once was a gentleman named Aleksey Vayner. He was a young aspiring Yale student about to enter his career. He decided he would leverage a video resume to best get across his talent and drive. That's about as far as his good decisions went.
From there it turned into a humorous attempt at a conference by Zig Ziglar. The only problem was he wasn't in on the joke.
Self-proclaimed CEO and professional athlete, Aleksey talks about the keys to success. He demonstrates how his physical prowess has helped him sharpen his mind by including footage of his 495lb bench press and 140mph tennis serve.
Unfortunately, all of the above were staged. It wasn't the true Aleksey Vayner, but it was hilarious! UBS thought it was so funny that they gave him an interview. Well, no they didn't and he didn't get the job.
Instead, Aleksey should have thought about what he wanted in his career. He was so busy selling his intangibles that he forgot about how valuable his experience at Yale and his financial skills really were. UBS prides themselves in quality hiring. Aleksey's professional portfolio would have been a great selling point.
Hopefully he will join CareerScribe soon and get his career back on track.
