Thank you for offering feedback based upon your interview experience with Ultius. We are sorry to hear that you found this interchange to be a negative one as you were not offered the position. There are a few reasons why writers may not pass the initial screening for writing quality and inability to follow the prompt instructions explicitly is one of them. Although you may receive high grades in your non professional academic writing, at Ultius we must set a high standard for not only writing quality but for following instructions and meeting deadlines without fail. We encourage you to apply for the freelance writer position with us again after you have gained more experience and your writing quality has improved. Thank you for expressing your interest in writing with us and best of luck on your future work!
