What recruiters look for in a Video Editor
Creators, agencies and brands need editors for Reels, YouTube and ads. A showreel link is essential.
Expect screening on Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, storytelling, colour grading and short-form editing. Mention the ones you have in your summary and prove them with results in your bullet points.
Resume tips that get you shortlisted
A strong summary for this role reads like this:
Video editor with 3 years editing YouTube and Reels content that reached 50M+ views.
Bullet points should show results, not duties. For example:

Delivered 30 Reels a month for a brand
Avoid this: No showreel link. See the full Video Editor resume guide.
