The second stage of our video editor application is a test edit. We ask candidates to come to our office for 2-3 hours and edit archive footage.
We ask candidates to come for this length of time so that they have sufficient time to provide a quality edit that is a good representation of their skill level. All candidates are notified of the length of time in advance of the session.
We use archive footage for this interview stage, as it allows us to directly compare the candidates edit against the edit already created by our internal team and signed off by the client.
Test edits are an opportunity for us to see the standard of editing of candidates and directly compare their skills with that of our internal team. It also gives candidates an opportunity to visit our offices and meet the team, which we feel is an important stage of the application process both for us and for candidates.
We are happy to provide feedback to any candidates at any stage of our interview process. However, having looked through our emails with all candidates for this position, none directly asked us for feedback.
Please email Bethan Wyatt on Bethan.wyatt@pinpoint-media.co.uk if you would like feedback on any stage of your application.
