As an experienced hire, is it acceptable to ask for the format of your upcoming interview(s)? Not sure what to expect, though i feel I should take the fact that a case will happen for granted

Yes. They will disclose if it’s a case.

Is it appropriate to ask if you’ve not yet applied? Or just applied and have not yet heard back? Don’t want to wait for a schedule interview to start preparing

You can always message a recruiter separately with a general question about the process while you wait for a response on your app

I am applying to more positions through staffing agencies as one way to get a writing job. When they tell me the hourly rate and I suggest a few dollars higher per hour, they'll say, "Just so you know, the competition is priced lower than you."

Is this to scare me into submission to charge less so that they can profit more? Or is an employer really not going to pick me because I am priced 1-$2 more per hour than someone else? Wdyt?

I don't know who needs to hear this, but I have a few former classmates and colleagues sweating over lateral interviews. Take a deep breath and relax.

First, doing these interviews does not define you as a person.

Second, take it one day at a time; if they are moving forward, they see something in you.

Third, remember that the people interviewing you are human beings. Connect with them, be personable.
