I didn't downvote you, but I'll offer:

Frankly, it's ugly so you're automatically not going to be doing any product work

"Frankly, at the current level, without some improvement and time, you probably won't be doing much product work."

If you could clean up your demos to look more acceptable to the modern day reviewer, I think you would have better presented yourself.

"Clean up those demos to appeal to the modern reviewer, and you'll be better able to present yourself."

(Empathy also presents you better)
