It is more than a little restrictive to attempt to condense all of your most employable qualities onto a 2-inch piece of paper -- perhaps a [mini movie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/videotoflip) would best allow you to express yourself? The EyeJot vCard works with the Eyejot Video Mail [iPhone](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/video-cards) app to help you distribute your self-promotional profile to potential employers.

The software allows you to combine a video, a photo and your professional identification details into a convenient .vcf file. A [QR code](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/qr-styler) will also accompany your personal information, as will a geotag link to mark the location of the business card exchange for the recipient's reference. An EyeJot vCard can also be customized for separate situations. For example, if you would like one card for more casual acquaintances and another for more professional settings, the vCard allows you to instantly send whatever version is most appropriate.
