Match your examples to the task

For a document-typing role, describe the kinds of source material you can read, the software you use and how you check spelling and formatting. For transcription, explain how you handle unclear audio and speaker changes. Use an example made from your own material; remove confidential client information.

Be specific about your available time

Part-time work still has deadlines. State the days or time blocks when you are available, your timezone and whether you can attend a scheduled discussion. Do not promise a volume of work before you understand the source quality, expected output and revision process.

Check the small details before sending

Use an email address you check regularly. Read your application once for meaning and once for spelling. Keep a note of the vacancy title. If a requirement is unclear, ask a focused question rather than guessing. Applying through this website is free.
