15 freelance writer editor interview questions shared by candidates

"You are my first choice, but with doctoral work under your belt, you are overly qualified." Briefly argue the opposite, pointing out why you chose not to write up a dissertation (e.g., for political or ideological obstacles) and what skills you acquired that match skills acquired from previous on-the-job training (e.g., writing and editing). Such a line of argumentation usually does not work, but do your best to convince an employer to hire you as a more preferable, efficient, and cost-effective candidate.
