Pick a clean, simple template for a Video Technician. Use a reverse-chronological layout so your recent gear, projects, and crew roles show first. That layout reads well and most applicant tracking systems parse it correctly.
Keep length tight. One page works for early and mid-career techs. Go to two pages only when you have long lists of operator, engineering, and rental-room experience that relate directly to the job.
Use ATS-friendly fonts like Calibri, Arial, Georgia, or Garamond. Set body text to 10–12pt and headers to 14–16pt. Keep line spacing at 1.0–1.15 and use clear margins to give the page breathing room.
Structure your sections with standard headings. Use "Contact," "Summary," "Experience," "Technical Skills," "Equipment," and "Education." Put certifications and safety training in Skills or a short Certifications section.
Avoid common mistakes that hurt Video Technician resumes. Don’t use complex columns, embedded images, or heavy graphics that break ATS parsing. Don’t use many colors or nonstandard fonts. Don’t cram text into tiny margins or long dense paragraphs.
Make bullets concise and action-focused. Start bullets with verbs like operated, calibrated, mixed, repaired, or documented. List specific gear and software only when they match the job. Keep formatting consistent for dates, job titles, and company names.
