Literature suggests that using screencasting technology increases the quality of feedback. However, there appears to be an absence of published work on using screencasting to provide feedback to students/graduates on their CVs. This mixed methods study aims to address this gap in the literature, exploring perceptions of students/graduates who received CV feedback via screencasting. Evidence from a small quantitative survey (n=79) and a focus group (n=4) suggested that the participants found the feedback via screencasting was easy to understand and personalised. Objective measures of the participants’ CVs suggested that the changes participants made
following feedback had improved their CVs.
