$2-50 AUD / hour

We are recruiting for an editing business that requires additional freelancers for long-term work that will start between April-June. To be considered you will need to have a very high standard of English (native-level proficiency) and prior editing experience. To apply, please detail your English proficiency, qualifications, prior editing/proofreading experience and your usual rate per 1000 words. If you have samples of previous work (e.g. showing suggested edits with track changes or comments), it would be advantageous to attach this to your application. Please note that applicants selected for interview will be required to complete a short test editing task (a few paragraphs) to demonstrate their capabilities. Rates will increase over time to reward people who receive consistently positive feedback and stay with the business over time. For top performers there are also opportunities to access higher-paying urgent jobs and monthly bonuses.

Hi there, For accurate high-quality proofreading contact me. I am a native English speaker and I have over 8 years of experience as a writer and editor. I read through all content a minimum of three times to ensure it is error free. My proofreading includes line editing to catch all spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors, as well as checking for correct word choice. I look forward to working with you.

"Hello, I understand that a copy and paste article may need to undergo several modifications for it to pass copyscape. I will modify, edit proofread and re-write the article to meet the required specifications. I will also seek to correct grammar errors and overall try to refine the English language. Regards, Garon Helton"

Hello, I am an Australian editor and proofreader. I work primarily with academia but can work outside this scope with ease. I am unable to attach evidence of skills to this proposal. If you take the time to view my profile and feedback, and then message me, I can discuss my skills with you. English is my native language.

Hello. I am a Canadian writer and editor who has been working since the early 1990s. I began my editing career with a publishing company, where I worked for two years. I also served as a full-time legal editor for four years; in this job, I edited patents, technical and legal documents, and general correspondence. I also have an extensive record of freelance editing and writing, and I am able to handle substantial rewrites and more challenging material, which includes medical documents: I am also a trained medical transcriptionist. My specialty is dealing with documents written by non-native speakers of English, so I am comfortable with handling vague, poorly worded, and confusing material that presents multiple grammatical and logical issues. The nature of my work has taught me to be a perfectionist, and I carefully consider the meaning of each sentence and always perform multiple edits. My bid reflects my standard hourly rate, and my rate for 1000 words would be almost the same, though I could charge less or more depending on the complexity of the work. I should be able to send you a short piece written by a native Chinese speaker once my proposal is submitted; my changes are marked up. Thank you for considering me. Sincerely, Mark

I am a retired native English speaking engineer who has spent 30 years working for the British Company JCB Excavators as Regional Manager for the Scandinavian Region. The proofreading experience I have has been with Freelancer over the last 6 years. Since I am retired I am able to handle any global time zones. Queries are handled using Skype and e-mail. Some excerpts from my reviews “Excellent provider. Working very correctly and accurate. Good communication!” firex1979 “Once again Doug delivered on time a product of the highest quality. Always a pleasure to work with!” “Douglas L. has been very committed and a wonderful guy work with. We will definitely recommend him for whatever he is committing on.” In view of the 40-hour nature of the project, I have reduced my rate to AU$12 per 1000 words. Please supply me with an e-mail address to which I can send a MS Word example of a recent project. I look forward to hearing further from you. Regards, Doug Lumley

Quoted from job description-- generally, pay per !000 entry lines in Excel $100 or an average of $10 an hour. Allowing for differences in difficulty and time consumption, we should be well within your budget. I am a native born US citizen from Texas. I am proficient and fluent in all aspects of the English language. This includes grammar, spelling, verb tense, business and medical terminology as well as American slang. I am certified in MS office applications, and proficient with Google Apps as well. I type 42 wpm, and 10-key by touch. I can also transcribe, copy, scan and email or compose correspondence. I have extensive experience with web research both on the job and in my academic studies of medical billing and coding classes. I work efficiently and will get the job done quickly, without errors. I keep in communication with project manager as needed or required to keep them informed and updated. I have always met deadlines as promised. I work well unsupervised, and take initiative to get things done, and also work well as a team member. I think of myself as a person who pays close attention to detail and tends to expect perfection in all I do. I thank you for your consideration and time, Janetta Caldwell Files from previous work of similar tasks and all links will be added at a later date as these files need to be retrieved from UpWork ( previously Elance)
