Freelancer Question:

This is a fun question because it can throw freelancers for a loop and make them really think about what to say. The way that other people describe you also says a lot about you. Most freelancers will have an idea of what people would say about them based on their own self-awareness of their behavior at work.

If you can, call or email the freelancer's list of references to see if what they say about the freelancer matches up with the freelancer's response to this question.
