A message from the founder

Welcome to SoapBoxGen

Hi, I'm Richard. I spent 19 years as a recruiter reviewing thousands of applications. I know exactly what gets candidates noticed—and what gets them ignored.

I built SoapBoxGen because I saw too many qualified candidates disappear into resume black holes, while less qualified candidates with better connections got interviews.

Your resume gets you screened. Video gets you seen.

You're invisible in a stack of 200 resumes

You spent hours tailoring your resume. Hit submit. And then... nothing. You're Resume #847 in an ATS black hole.

what your personality is worth on paper

Sound familiar?

"I'm great in interviews, but I can't get past the resume screen."
"My background is unconventional—I need to explain my story."
"I have 10 years of experience but keep losing to keyword-stuffed resumes."
"I'm applying to remote jobs where culture fit matters more than credentials."

Quality Gates Before Submission

You can't submit your video until minimum quality standards are met. This protects you from accidentally sharing a low-quality recording and ensures hiring managers take your video seriously.

Doesn't video introduce bias?

We've heard this concern, and it's valid. Here's our approach:

Video reveals what resumes already reveal—and more fairly.

Resumes contain bias signals too: names (indicating race/ethnicity), addresses (socioeconomic status), university names (privilege), graduation years (age), and employment gaps.

The difference is that video lets you show skills that matter—like communication, presence, and authenticity—instead of being judged solely on credential proxies.

Our Commitment to Fairness

You control what you share. Choose your setting, outfit, and presentation style.
No AI analysis of appearance. We don't use algorithms to analyze facial expressions, tone, or any visual attributes. Humans watch your video, not AI.
Native recording levels the field. No one can outsource to professional video services—everyone uses the same tools and quality coaching.
Quality coaching for all. Real-time feedback helps candidates from all backgrounds present professionally.

Video is a tool. Like any tool, it can be used fairly or unfairly. We're building safeguards to promote fair use, and we give you the agency to present yourself on your own terms.

Why not just record on my phone and upload to YouTube?

Frequently Asked Questions

When does this launch?

Late February 2026. Founding members get early access and lifetime pricing at $29 (students) or $49 (general public).

Is this a subscription?

No. One-time payment for lifetime access. Create and update your video profile as many times as you want.

I've never recorded a video before. Will I look unprofessional?

That's exactly why we built real-time quality guidance. We check your lighting, framing, and audio before you record. You'll get feedback like "Move closer to the camera" or "Face the window for better lighting" before you hit record. Professional results without professional equipment.

Will hiring managers actually watch these?

Yes—when it saves them time. A 30-second video lets them assess communication skills instantly, rather than scheduling 15-30 minute phone screens with dozens of candidates.

Can I update my video later?

Absolutely. Your lifetime access means you can record new versions anytime—whether you're targeting a different industry, gained new experience, or just want to refresh it.

Why can't I upload my own video?

Native recording ensures authenticity and levels the playing field. Everyone uses the same tools and quality coaching—candidates with access to professional video services don't get an unfair advantage.
