Writing Sample? (freelance writer)



Writing Sample? (freelance writer)?
So I've just started looking for freelance writing jobs, and so many recruiters ask for writing samples. Is the writing sample the same as a writing sample for a regular job? Or is it a sample of your narrative/short stories. (I've been doing creative writing) How long should it be? 1 page, 10 pages? 500 words? 100 words? Thank you!

Hi A&I - each interview is going to be different. Your best course of action is to have multiple writing samples available. Then if your interviewer wants one page you have a page, if it is 10 then you have ten. I suggest researching the company some and see where their main interest lies and use that. But to best be prepared call and ask - being prepared is going to be an excellent point to your advantage. And researching the requirement shows that you are proactive and interested in the position
