About the role

Employer assignments use this pool when they need a Content Writer in Austin, United States, who is accountable for a draft that an editor can mark up. The useful week is spent using the house style you were given, flagging uncertainty, and not hiding a weak section, with mistakes corrected in the open rather than buried.
Responsibilities

- Keep a single current uncertainty flag, and archive the older copy once you have dealt with a sentence you are not sure of.
- Ask the editor to challenge the structure, especially around the headings that match the outline.
- Write the assumption behind the link in two or three plain sentences, and mention a link that works.
- Compare this week's brief check with the previous one and explain a point from the brief you did not cover.
- Stop and rework the notes to editor if you find the what you want a decision on.
Requirements
- Roughly 2 to 5 years of submitting drafts that are easy to edit that matches this content writer profile, or a shorter record with the same kind of finished work.
- Practical skill with a style sheet and editor notes in content writer work, not a certificate alone.
- Able to explain what you want a decision on to a colleague who was not in the room.
- Careful with uncertainty hidden in confident prose; this is checked in review of content writer work.
- For the content writer brief in Austin, use the working language of that assignment in United States.
