Insightful Project Management Interview
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I am looking for someone with project management experience to answer interview questions so I can write a reflective paper on their experience.
I only want the questions answered as I can write the paper myself.
It is a set of 12 questions, I am looking for both professional and relatable answers as this was supposed to be done in an interview format.
I am panicking because the paper is due tomorrow (I thought it was due Sunday) and I misunderstood the assignment at the beginning of the semester (I thought I would be the interviewee not the interviewer, acting like a PM from what I learned in this class).
I don't want AI answers, I want an authentic person -- name, company you work for, how long, etc. I want this to be thorough.
I don't want to pay JustAnswer $65 to answer 12 questions. I know freelancers make their own rates and what not, but this was supposed to be merely a 10 minute interview.
Thanks for your time. I'm the worst procrastinator and I will do better next time.
