If I have to say it in a nutshell, the freelance interview is the chance for the freelancer to land the job! We discussed last week some of the freelance cover letter specifics so this week we’ll speak about the next step – the freelance interview.

There are 2 types of freelance jobs on freelance job boards like oDesk, Elance, etc. – let’s call them hourly assignments and fixed price jobs. Soon we will talk about applying to freelance jobs successfully and interviewing process as a freelancer but in the meantime – let’s see how to decide on your own which type of freelance jobs is for you.
