I specialize in web scraping jobs. You can see on my profile that I have completed many similar jobs. Don't make the mistake of hiring an amateur, who doesn't have the skill set to properly complete this task and will only waste your time. Hire me, a professional with a rock solid reputation and over 8 years of experience specifically in writing scraping code like this. I know what I can and cannot do, and I won't waste your time by saying I can do something that I can't. because I exclusively write scraping code I know what to expect and I will always live up to what I tell you, and will also deliver a higher quality final product than my competitors.

Dear Employer, This post has drawn my attention since the food research component is also a personal interest, and I have the qualification to perform the job as well as meeting the weekly goal. I have experience, as an user, with calories counter application. I have recommended the use or them to some of my friends. I have a personal interest measuring my daily calories, since my family has a diabetes history. I am from Latin America, and I have been traveling in many countries, including United States, Mexico, all Central America and Colombia, and also some countries in Africa and Asia. I work as a consultant in project management for agriculture and rural development initiative. All my travels have gave me a clear picture of the food type as well as the portions served in a complete meal, in every country. I also like cooking, so I am familiar with ingredients and portions. I have also IT background, as I am a System Engineering, so Excel, Data base and distance work is part of my strength. This time, I am traveling and I have plenty free time, so I have interest in freelancer activities. I have the means and the time to this job. Looking forward to be part of this research/data entry project. Best Regards, Sara Moreira

As a regular calorie counter, i understand the importance of correct and concise information regarding the nutritional information of food i eat. This project will utilize my daily skills that i apply to my way of life. finding the accurate calorie count for a meal can sometimes be tricky due to the numerous amount of information on the web. If i am assigned this project, i will conduct a thorough research on the nutritional information available for a particular food item, tally it with the serving size, confirm with the manufacturer and if the information still remains unclear, i would make a personal trip to the department store to confirm for myself. I have over 5 years experience working for as an administrative assistant for two large retail/departmental stores in canada (zellers/target), my duties were heavily condensed in research and data entry so i understand the importance of the task ahead. in addition to that, i am a regular editor for MYFITNESSPAL ( a food and exercise tracking app), constantly adding and correcting nutritional information, serving size and product brand name. In summary, i believe that i am the right person for this task because i have a deep interest in nutrition, healthy living and overall; your company's ideology which makes it very easy to channel my skills towards ensuring that this task is done consistently, effectively and correctly.
