My experiences with proofreading and working with such a varied group of writers make me an ideal candidate for the available transcription/proofreading position.
Much of my previous work experience has been in assisting, editing and proofreading, and customer service, which are all essential skills needed for freelance work. The tools and techniques I have learned from this industry apply directly to the skills proofreaders need—the skills you seek—quick turnaround time, knowledge of the many and ever-changing grammar rules, eagerness to work, knowledge of legal and medical terminology, and knowing how to research and verify dates, topics, historical facts, etc.
I am proficient in MS Office, WordPerfect, and Adobe, among other software, and I am familiar with AP style writing, Chicago Manual of Style, and Gregg Reference Manual.
My pay rate is flexible and negotiable, depending on the amount of work and funds available. I look forward to working with you.
