Before you post: what actually matters for this role

Throughput is the real requirement — most brands need three to five edits a week and portfolio quality alone will not tell you if a candidate can sustain that. Ask directly, then test with a paid trial edit before committing.

Three questions that separate video editing intern candidates

These are written so an HR generalist can ask them without domain expertise. You do not need to evaluate the technical answer — listen for whether the candidate reasons from something they actually did, or from something they read.

  1. 1

    Show me a reel you edited. Why did you cut where you cut?

  2. 2

    How would you fix a video where the audio is good but the pacing drags?

  3. 3

    How many finished edits can you deliver in a week, honestly?
