Thank you for looking at this job posting! I am looking for a full-time blogging and creative writer for my website on systems and time management.
The #1 thing anyone should know about me when applying to be a member of my team, is that I believe in enabling my team members and getting out of their way — I do NOT micromanage when someone takes ownership of their work and does a great job!
Also, I have highly detailed video training to walk you step-by-step through the work for this position.
This is PAID training — I never ask my team members to do work or training for free.
I’ll be leaving this job posting up for approximately 3 days. If your application catches my attention, you will receive an email with a few additional questions to answer. I will then be setting up 2-3 video interviews for the final candidates from those emailed question responses.
If I have not sent you any emails within 7 business days, please assume the position has been filled.
If you have received a follow up email from me, once you respond, I will e-mail you personally either to request a video interview, or to let you know we found some other candidates that more closely fit what I am looking for.
This job requires, at a very minimum:
1) 100% perfect, fluent written and spoken English (no syntactical, grammatical, spelling errors or use of slang incorrectly)
2) A reliable, high-speed internet connection
3) A reliable computer
4) The ability to research even the most unfamiliar topics, and the ability to write a high-quality article teaching that topic to others (similar to a research paper — I have detailed training for this)
5) A willingness to track all of your hours while you work
6) The ability to type at least 40-50 WPM (words per minute)
7) A willingness to proofread your own work and upload it to the website
8) A willingness to find royalty free pictures that are relevant and engaging for the article, an eye for graphic design is a plus.
9) A willingness to learn how to create SEO optimized articles
10) Being comfortable on video for zoom calls and some meetings with team members and clients
(If any of these sound daunting, please don’t worry. I have in-depth video training that will show you exactly how to do each one. Also, I am always here for questions you may have)
A perfect candidate would have (these are NOT required; just preferred):
1) An interest in helping business owners, specifically women organize and grow their business to be able to serve their clients at a higher level.
2) The ability to write with a fun, casual writer’s voice that keeps the reader entertained, even for complex or advanced topics
Fair warning, I am a pretty casual person overall. I don’t micromanage, but I’m always here if you have questions or want to be certain of something before taking action.
I prefer team members that can come on board, learn quickly, and become independent and reliable as quickly as possible. If you’re willing to learn and work hard, I’m willing to teach!
If that sounds like something you’re interested in and qualified for, please let me know! If you have read this far include the words purple unicorn creatively in the subject line of your e-mail response. Also, I will probably get about 200 applications, so make sure yours is creative and will stand out. I promise a generically emailed template will just get deleted.
Lastly, a culture fit (in other words, us getting along like friends) is MUCH more important to me than having blogging experience or keyword research experience. Don’t be shy if you think we’ll get along, but you need to be trained on all the above items. I have all the video training ready for you!
