Writers Work Wednesday!
Want some work as a freelance writer? Tired of all those location-based ads? Writers Work Wednesday will link to jobs I’ve scoured and found through my over 80 links to leads!
Will Writers Work Wednesday happen every Wednesday? Possibly and hopefully. One problem I foresee is that you can’t drip current leads a week ahead, and with my upcoming training schedule and vacation schedule, this is problematic.
But for today- on to the J-O-B-S!
Jobroll has a post from Nativespeaker.com needing proofreaders and editors for academic papers.
Insite Grant Developers needs to add a grantwriter to their team. This comes from Write Jobs.
CopyWriters Board has a post regarding a bilingual copywriting position.
There’s a lead for a Writer for a publishing company over at WritersWeekly.
Freelance Venue has a listing for an article writer.
SparkNotes needs test items preparers. I’m not positive this is telecommute.
The Webby Awards is advertising for more reviewers. I have worked for this project two years in a row and love it!
Worried about competing with the 900 other people who have seen these jobs today? Then drop everything and apply now! One of my secrets to getting freelance positions is to always always apply ASAP. Even though you may be the very best candidate out there, you’ve got to remember that employers often get an avalanche of seekers. Even though they have good intentions, it’s highly likely they get worn out! (I would!)
Another thing to keep in mind is to tailor your response to each job individually. The effort shows!
Best of luck to you, and don’t worry— I didn’t apply for any of these; I’m full up for a week or two!
