>>97285801Snakeanon here, one of the threads most notable failures. And while I rarely like to draw attention to myself outside of management duties now, I figured I'd pass along what I've learnt from the various corporations I've applied for and the many interview stages I've experienced. Two of each I got to the final rounds for.
>Break your statements up into bullet points that directly feed the person watching the information they need. If you want to be personal, you do that when they interview you and see how you actually act away from a script.Being too personal will also result in needless time taken away from the reel which delays showcasing your selling points. For example, if your intro about yourself is longer than 12 seconds, you've realistically got another 18 seconds before the staff member tasked to watch clicks off and casts judgement. Time is money and they aren't gonna watch all 5mins to get to the "good bit". My best audition tape, the longest viewing was around 2 and a half mins out of 5.
>Again, they need information stat. So a solid intro would be. "My name is femanon, I've been streaming for x years. Average viewership is y. I speak the following languages. I can sing (you do a line that showcases range, not a whole verse)." etc.It's rapid fire yes, but you gotta imagine the person watching isn't a Japanese business man but a zoomer swiping TikTok. You know how you get like point 3 of a second of audio before the next video? Yeah, like that.
>If you are using highlights from streams as a crutch, remember that this is a VISUAL application. Use this screen space to put up stats and other misc. info when it plays. Data, stats, random info that helps.For example, let's say you are padding out this video and you wanted to showcase you are good at networking right. Have a collab video and visually with some sort of lower third have it go "Femanon has been apart of and collabed with 50 unique streamers"
>You don't need all 5mins. They do that as a baseline to filter ramblings Andy's who hit "record" and pray. Maximise everything you can knowing they have limited time.Best of luck and keep grinding. We'll all make it one day.
