Proofreading Investigative Reports

$8-15 USD / hour

$8-15 USD / hour

I need a proofreader who can review and edit report as needed. They will need to submit two copies of the report one that documents the changes and then a clean version. I have one report ready, but usually send over one or two a week for review. Each report takes about one hour to review. I have a good proofreader already, but looking for a backup must have experience and understand the English language and grammar.

Hello Ian I know we once worked until you started working with Bret444. All I do remember was you only asked for proofreading and that is what I did. Can you give me a second chance to prove myself? If I fail then please do not pay me. Best regards Marli

Hello I would really enjoy helping proofread your investigative reports I have only been with Freelancer for 10 months so I can’t top the number of reviews –but already my exceptionally high standards mean my ‘repeat hire rate,’ or clients who use me more than once, is nearly 50% higher than my nearest competitor. That says a lot! Proofreading and editing require 100% accuracy - there is no room for errors. A 5* average rating = 0 errors A 4.9* average rating = 99% accuracy = 10 errors / 1,000 words I believe just one single error looks unprofessional and is totally unacceptable in anything, and especially copy which will be published, whether it is a book or website. Good editing requires exceptional English skills – my 98% pass for English level 3 has been the main reason many are now turning to me. Most have indicated that they felt more confident using someone who had the highest proven English skills on Freelancer. Again with nothing but 5* ratings for my editing, nobody has been anything other than 100% happy with my work I am available 7 days a week and I am 6 hours ahead, so work given one day can be on your desk first thing the next day - I do a lot of work with American clients. Kind Regards David Dundas

Attention to detail appears to be lacking in nearly all of the other current bidders, since only one also bid for an hour a week, and my exam scores (100% at levels 1 and 2, 95% at level 3) are equal or better than happymarli's.

Hello, I am extremely interested in completing this project for you. I'm not going to promise you the earth, just all the skills, education and experience from over 25 years of writing, editing, proofreading and formatting documentation for a wide variety of disciplines and genre. I have a keen eye for detail and the ability to not only spot any inconsistencies in your text but to correct them as well. Irrespective of whatever type of documentation, topic or genre I can guarantee you top quality work from a professional Writer/Documentation Consultant, excellent communication and above all value for your money. I firmly believe that an editor’s role is not only to make sure the content is structured correctly and grammatically correct but to also ensure that the edited content is consistent in capturing the author's thoughts and ideas for their intended audience. To date with my freelancing career I have edited in excess of 50 books, proofread/edited academic articles and theses to PhD level, created technical documentation for multi-national companies, created/edited website content, and articles for a wide variety of topics. I will ensure that your documentation meets your criteria and is completed within the timescales you require. If you care to review my Freelancer profile and the comments of my previous Freelancer clients then you will see that I can adequately meet your requirements. You can contact me at any time to discuss your project. Regards Jim Moore

I am an experienced proofreader. I have worked editing legal documents and reports for many years. I can send smaples over via PM. I would use text changes for the first document and then accept them all for the clean copy.

I have 10+ years experience proofreading documents for my managers, directors, and colleagues. I worked in the Canadian government for 32 years in a variety of jobs; including several years in management. Although not always part of my job, I was frequently called upon to proofread and edit documents such as business plans, webpages, partnership agreements, reports to Parliament, reports to senior managers and Members of Parliament, communications to the public, communications to staff, etc. My skill was an asset to any part of the organization in which I worked. I am now retired and looking to continue to use my skill to assist others with their proofreading needs. I am new to this type of forum and the freelancing and will hopefully be offered an opportunity to demonstrate my skill. Thank you for your consideration.

Hi! In college, I was news editor, editor-in-chief, and office technician of my student newspaper. Since then, I haven't done much reporting, but I have done a lot of editing, both personally and professionally. I can handle big and small tasks. I can adjust tone/voice (straight reporting, slight marketing bent, humorous) as needed. For the last three years, I was a technical editor for the world's largest telecommunications company, Huawei Technologies, Ltd. I also published a book recently (which I also edited). Therefore, I'm sure I can handle whatever you throw at me. Looking forward to hearing from you! Ryan Keawekane
