I'm a Gen Z marketer who ditched my résumé and used my TikTok account to land a new job
Gen Zers have been told time and time again to watch what we post on social media because it could hurt our careers. But in my case, social media was an important tool for helping my career.
When I was applying, I wanted to show my innovation and creativity, so I shared my TikTok account, media kit, and website instead of a traditional résumé and cover letter. I wouldn't recommend that all Gen Zers take this route, but the nature of the industry and the culture of this startup made me feel confident in my application.My application still included the metrics I needed to prove my success, just like a résumé should.
And my past partnerships with companies like Wellory, Amazon's Alexa, and Cloudy proved that I could effectively market products and generate partnership leads.
