Freelance Designer Interview Questions

320 freelance designer interview questions shared by candidates

Will you design a couple comps for us so that we can access your skill? It’s always a huge, red flag when companies ask for free comps in order to “make a decision” whether to hire talent. Goldman Marketing Group is no exception. After being in business for over 5 years you would expect them to be more adept at working with design talent. If a company can’t make a decision based on an existing portfolio and a resume, how can they be expected to make other business decisions? It’s a poor choice to treat talent as a commodity rather than as a potential team member that will ultimately attract and retain business for the company. Poor communications and little to no respect for talent earns this company a big thumbs down.
