Description

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE JOB ADVERTISEMENT BEFORE RESPONDING.

We have immediate, long-term openings on our team for native English-speaking writers willing to work 25-35 hours per week between the hours of 8 AM - PM EST.

We have hired five people in March and three in April from our PROBLOGGER ad and hope to hire at least five again this month.

We have been in business for more than a decade. Our teams provide quality content to internet marketing agencies and individual clients.

You will have an opportunity to write blogs and webpage content for a variety of niches including legal, medical, financial, guns and hunting, and much more.

We start all writers at $12/hour. Pay raises and additional hours depend on demonstrated skills.

Our expectation is you can produce at least 400 words per hour or 2000 words during your shift. The exact word count will depend on the complexity of the assignment and your familiarity with the topic, but on average monthly, you should be able to produce at this rate.

You can live anywhere but you must be willing to work a set shift, 25 hours minimum per week, sometime between the hours of 8 AM – 5 PM EST.

We hire management and editor positions from within. You must start as a writer first before consideration for any editor positions.

You will work using our platforms. We use Monday.com for assignments and for keeping track of hours, Google Drive for writing and editing, and Slack for communications. We also use different industry software products, depending on client requirements, such as the SEMrush or Frase writing tools.

We will train you in using these tools.

We very strongly prefer candidates who attended American/British/Australian/Canadian/Irish/New Zealand secondary schools and colleges.

We desire candidates with at least an undergraduate degree but will consider strong writers without degrees or in the process of matriculating.

We give preference to qualified veterans.

HOW TO APPLY

We only consider applications that contain four things:

1. A copy of your CV.

2. A short message, just a paragraph or two, telling us a little bit about yourself that might not be in your CV such as your hobbies and interests.

3. At least one sample of your writing or a link to something you have written (preferably non-academic).

4. This statement at the top of the reply: " I understand and accept the requirement to work a minimum of 5 hours per day, Monday through Friday, with the five-hour shift taking place between the hours of 8 AM and 6 PM EST."

We will offer selected candidates a set amount through PayPal based on the length of the test piece.

If we hire you, future payments will be monthly by direct deposit.

Thank you for reading our advertisement. We look forward to reviewing your application.

NOTE: Due to the volume of applicants, we cannot respond to every writer who applies. You can assume if we have not messaged you back within a week of your application date, we are not interested.
