What It Is

My1Min is a job seeker platform from Norway-based My1Min Technologies AS, positioned as a tool for “modern job applications.” It combines a 1-minute video introduction, digital CV, skills, languages, references, and contact details into a secure link that candidates can share via email, application forms, or social media, serving as a replacement for or enhancement to traditional resumes and cover letters.

Core Features and Collaboration

The platform’s core features include recording videos in a browser or app, uploading/creating a digital CV, creating multiple job applications, a public Profile, an application Dashboard, and recruitment pipeline management. Job seekers can create a job card for each position and move it through stages such as Draft, Applied, Interview, and Hired; they can also see whether an employer has opened their application. AI interview training offers practice with general questions, while the Premium plan is expected to add role-specific questions. In terms of team collaboration, the employer-side product has not launched yet; employers mainly view applications via shared links, and application links can be shared within a team.

Pricing, Security, and Deployment

The free plan costs $0/month, requires no credit card, and covers video applications, public profiles, and general interview training. The Pro/Premium plan is listed at $25/month but is still marked as Coming soon, with planned features including three-step reusable applications, more design templates, and customized interview preparation. Payments are handled via Stripe, with support for Visa and Mastercard. On security, the platform emphasizes GDPR compliance, non-downloadable videos, remote deletion of applications, and employer viewing through my1min.com links, meaning data is not transferred into the employer’s own system. Deployment is cloud-based Web, with iOS/Android apps also available. No self-hosting, API, or developer support has been disclosed.

Pros, Cons, and Best Fit

Its strengths include a low barrier to entry with free usage, centralized job application materials, clear differentiation through video presentation, and the ability to track whether an application has been opened. Remote deletion also adds a degree of privacy control. Limitations include the fact that advanced features and the B2B product have not officially launched, while enterprise collaboration, third-party integrations, and data export capabilities appear limited. Video-based applications may also not suit every industry or hiring culture. My1Min is best suited to students, recent graduates, career changers, and candidates with limited experience who want to showcase communication skills and motivation.

Access in China and Alternatives

The source material does not provide information on mainland China access, ICP filing, local payment methods, or Chinese-language service, so availability from China is unknown. Since payments only mention Stripe, Visa, and Mastercard, Chinese users may encounter payment inconvenience. Domestic alternatives or complementary tools include Boss直聘, 猎聘, 智联招聘, and 前程无忧; international alternatives include LinkedIn, Indeed, Teal, Huntr, Kickresume, and others.
