Senior Editor
BEST. EDITING. JOB. EVER.
By day, Admissionado is an admissions consulting company founded by two Brown University grads (one ended up going to Harvard Business School, the other to USC Film School). By night, we save cats from trees and foil rebel plots. Fifty percent of these statements are 100% true.
We are scouring the earth for wildly intelligent, self-motivated, fiercely talented editors. Not just any editor. The Michael Phelps of diagnosing logic weaknesses. The Serena Williams of delivering incisive, actionable feedback. The Muhummad Ali of... overall awesomeness.
We love our work and take a lethal amount of pride in it. If you're an artist at heart, and you like fixing stuff, AND you've got mad skills with the red pen, welcome home.
Expect to commit roughly 40 hours/week through January 2022. The work is remote, and always has been (since the company was founded, more than a decade ago). And compared to a position in a cubical farm, your schedule here is flexible (no fixed office hours): you can edit in a coffee shop, on your patio, on a plane, or in a coffee shop on a plane if that's how you roll.
By the way, there’s potential for this role to develop into a year-round position. We're too damn popular, we keep growing, and new positions are created often!
To apply: Send your resume and a cover letter. In addition, write a 250-word (or so) story about a kid who loses a sandwich. It can be serious, ridiculous, or even true – we want to get a sense of your style. Bonus points for amazing, groan-worthy puns. Email everything to Alex Collazo at alex.collazo@admissionado.com with the subject line “Editor Application."
