Employers hire for skills. Your CV and cover letter are built around the skills the advertisement asks for.
Your real skills are ordered and worded around what the employer asked for, so the right things are seen first.
Every claim comes from your own CV. Gaps are marked for you to fill, and nothing is invented.
A plain layout and standard headings help applicant tracking systems and recruiters read your CV correctly.
Many employers use applicant tracking systems that let recruiters search by job title and skills. Matching your wording to the ad truthfully helps you be found. No tool can guarantee an interview or a job.
Three situations, one tool — because "just record something and send it over" always turns into more work than it should.
Some applications ask for a short intro, and some just stand out more with one. Record it once, drop the link on your CV or LinkedIn, and it's ready whenever someone clicks.
Learn more →On Upwork, Fiverr, or anywhere else, a short video pitch gets more replies than text alone. Record a new one per job in a couple of minutes, and paste a link straight into your proposal.
Learn more →Send candidates to Jikoreel instead of juggling video files over email. They record, you get a link back — no software to install on either side.
Learn more →Everything happens in your browser. Nothing is uploaded until you choose to share it.
A short countdown, then you're recording — plain and reliable, up to 3 minutes.
Two options, equally easy — Jikoreel processes whichever you pick right after you stop recording.
Get one clean jikoreel.com link. Paste it into a proposal, an application, or an email — it just plays.
You're not locked into one look — pick whichever fits the moment.
The fastest option — your actual room, softened, so the focus stays on you regardless of what's behind you.
Use a company backdrop, a plain color, or any photo you like — swapped in cleanly wherever your real background was.
Open the page and start. You only need an account if you want to manage past links.
No channel, no comments section, no "recommended videos" next to your intro. Just your video.
Applying to five jobs doesn't mean overwriting one video five times — each recording gets its own link.
No app to install for you or for the person watching. Any modern browser plays it.
No. You can open the recorder and start right away. An account is only useful later, if you want to keep track of videos you've shared.
No. Each recording gets its own private link. It isn't listed anywhere, doesn't have a channel or comments, and isn't searchable — only someone with the exact link can watch it.
Blur softens your actual surroundings so they're not distracting. Uploading your own background replaces it entirely with a photo or color of your choice — useful if you want a consistent, branded look across every video.
Up to 3 minutes. The first 45 seconds of any video are free; anything from 45 seconds up to 3 minutes is $0.99 per shareable link.
Yes — that's the intended use. Each recording produces its own separate link, so you're never overwriting or reusing the same file across different applications or proposals.
No. The link opens directly in their browser and plays, the same as any other web page.

It is a CV with a plain single-column layout, standard headings such as Work Experience and Education, and real text instead of images or tables, so applicant tracking systems can read it correctly.
No. The CV and cover letter use only what is in your own CV. Where something is missing the draft leaves a [placeholder] for you to fill in, and it lists skills the job ad asks for that your CV does not show.
Yes. You can edit the text and switch between three templates in a free, watermarked preview. You pay only to download the clean Word, PDF or text file.
Cover letter only is $0.50, cover letter plus video link $0.99, ATS-friendly CV $1.49, CV plus cover letter $1.99, and CV plus cover letter plus video link $2.49. Video recording keeps its usual price: free under 45 seconds.
