I’m going to apply for my first camera operator job soon. I have a demo reel, but I don’t know how to make my resume look appealing. Can I add unrelated work if some of the soft skills required are the same?

How unrelated is it? Had my boss telk me once not to put unrelated content but on your case it could be helpful since it shows some of the required skills. Maybe, go for it.

If it can be somehow tied in with the type of work you're applying for, then add it in. If it's completely unrelated and doesn't really tie in, then I'd say leave it off.

if you can show that they are related to the job, then go for it! I don't see why you can't put it in your resume. good luck

If you can pull it off and justify how it all relates to what you've added on, I don't see why not. Just don't steer too far away from the accuracy of the skills required.

Of course, you can. All you just need to do next is to relate those soft skills to the role you are applying for. Good luck!

Any advice?

I once asked a colleague at a radio company how much he's paid monthly, and he outright refused to tell me. In fact, he found it very odd that I asked. I later learned that he was making double my salary. I know it's not an employee's job to fix pay inequity by sharing their salary figures, but I'm still of the opinion that it helps uncover pay gaps. But do you think it's wise to do so at the risk of damaging your work environment or the whole thing backfiring on you? Thoughts are welcome.
