What does a reviewer do?

A reviewer specializes in providing constructive and insightful feedback over forms of literature, goods, or services. Moreover, a reviewer is primarily responsible for examining and understanding all aspects of a product, remaining professional and unbiased, relaying areas needing improvement, and suggesting ways to make the product better. A reviewer may work in a company while under the supervision of a manager; one may also work as an independent entity, which will require building a platform from scratch and producing necessary marketing materials such as videos and photos.
