Do you have experience working with graphic design in Canva and know how to tell a good design from a bad one? Do you want to work with AI in a publishing business?
Do you want to work from home and need a stable job with predictable tasks? Then you might be the person I need…
ABOUT US:
I own a book publishing business.
We find and restore 100+ year-old classic books and republish them on Amazon for readers to enjoy all over the world.
JOB TASKS:
– Your daily task will be to go to a shared spreadsheet, where there will be a list of links to old-book manuscripts.
You must then take each book title and use ChatGP AI generator to gather some metadata information for the book and enter this into a document (mostly copy-paste as AI will do the rest)
– You will then have to create book covers for the books in paperback, hardcover and ebook format. All of this is done in Canva by following a simple step-by-step template. No original designs are needed, the design is the same for each book.
– You must use Midjourney, an AI image generation tool to create book cover images for the books. Here it is important that you have a sense of what a good looking book cover looks like and are able to choose the correct cover images.
– You are expected to create metadata and book covers for about 2-3 books per hour.
REQUIREMENTS:
– Great attention to detail
(Very important – Amazon Terms of Service have very specific rules about book covers that must be followed.)
– Organized
(You will be researching metadata and creating book covers for about 20 books per day, so you must be good at keeping files separated in correct folders etc. to avoid mixups)
– Self-motivated
(After the training period, you will have weekly check-ins with me Ivan W the owner, but generally, you won’t be working with anyone else from the team. I will always be available for questions or feedback during the week, so you will never be left alone)
– Wishes to stay in the job for 1 year or more
– Have a computer with a minimum 1920×1080 (Full HD) resolution and a computer mouse.
(Ideally, you have 1 or 2 external monitors attached to improve efficiency and speed)
WORK TIME:
– I expect you to work 40 hours per week and that you use Timeproof while working to track your hours.
– You can work whenever you want during the week. However many hours per day you want. Where ever from you want. At night, afternoon, or on the weekends. At home, in a café or on the beach. It does not matter to me, as long as you work 40 hours per week and create about 2-3 metadata/covers per hour.
WHEN APPLYING:
– Tell me about why you believe you would be a good fit for the job
– Send an overview of your work history
– Send links to cover designs you have done
– Personal information (age & kids.)
– Do you have another full-time or part-time job or will this be your only job if you get it?
– Tell me if the offered salary is acceptable to you or not (if not, please do not apply)
– Look at these 5 images /sh/ddkw92g48n643mh/AADNIYulNkD0DQLZfkexfF3Oa?dl=0 Tell me which of the 4 in each image is the best image (count from left to right) to use as a cover for a book. Write the answer like this:
Image 1: no. 1
Image 2: no. 4
I look forward to receiving your cover letter!
Kind Regards
