This question is concerned with your performance in the job. All publications must deal with the pressure of deadlines while producing content of a certain quality.
Choose a skill that relates to quality assurance. Then choose a second skill that enables you to meet deadlines. Finally, choose a third skill that focuses on your ability to manage people.
Start your response with the overall result that you're capable of producing. Support that answer by listing three of your strongest skills, following each skill with a brief explanation.

"I'm great at making sure that we produce quality content on time. First of all, I have a good eye for quality. Second of all, I'm a great project manager: I have good time management skills. Last but not least, I'm very good at making sure people meet their deadlines: I know exactly how much pressure I need to give to each individual writer and when to let up."
