Here is a sample
Overall Score: 40.8/100 → The video has some style but is missing almost all the elements that make it job-hunting ready. It’s visually modern but strategically weak for converting attention into leads or interviews.
Strengths
- Length (35s) → Great for short-form consumption.
- Fast pacing (87.5 cuts/min) → High-energy and attention-grabbing, which can work well if the message is clear.
- Modern styles: 20/30 → Editing feels current and trend-aligned.
Weaknesses
- Not Vertical → Posting in horizontal format will tank your reach on LinkedIn, Instagram Reels, and TikTok.
- No Captions → You’re losing 70–80% of viewers who watch with sound off, especially recruiters scrolling at work.
- No CTA (0 hits) → Viewers have no clue what to do after watching — no “DM me,” no portfolio link, no email.
- No Value Statements (0 hits) → You never explain what you bring to the table or why someone should hire you.
- No Branding (0 hits) → There’s nothing to help people remember your name if your video gets shared.
- No Last Text → You end abruptly without reinforcing your identity or contact info.
Pacing Score: 18.8/30 → Editing is fast but might be too fast for clarity; recruiters need a second to absorb what they’re seeing.
Key Fixes to Increase Score & Effectiveness
- Make it vertical (9:16) for max reach.
- Add burned-in captions — short lines (5–9 words) on screen for <2s each.
- Add a clear CTA at the end — and hold it on screen for 2 seconds (e.g., “DM me for my portfolio” or “See my work: [link]”).
- Include at least one value statement — something measurable or unique about your work.
- Show your name/brand — even if subtle, so they remember you.
- Consider slowing pacing slightly — give breathing room for key points.
