Delivery Issues

• ⏱️ Too long (rambling, repetitive, poor concision)
• 👀 Clearly reading (if you read this like a script, you will not pass a HireVue)
• ⚡ Talking too fast (prioritize quality of words over quantity)
• 😐 Low energy (flat, robotic, no warmth or smiling)

Professionalism Issues

• 👔 Informal dress (you will not pass in a sweatshirt or a t-shirt)
• 🪑 Poor posture (leaning in, slouching, standing awkwardly)
• 🔇 Distracting background and/or background noise

Content / Structure Issues

• 📉 GATE framework not followed closely enough
• 🧩 Weak or surface-level transitions between components
• 🎯 Lack of a clear, specific end goal
• 🤖 Boilerplate AI language (e.g., “analytical rigor,” “strategic thinker,” “fast-paced environment,” “leveraging skillsets”)
