<p>Dear Editor World Hiring Committee,</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thank you for your consideration of my employment. I have been editing, proofing, and English proofreading full- time as a freelance editor during my undergraduate career as well as serving on the editorial board for a mid-sized International Undergraduate Psychology Journal for two years, becoming Editor-in-Chief after one year. Through this position, I have edited and read hundreds of papers to be made acceptable for peer-reviewed academic publication. While I may not have traditional calendar approved years of experience of other candidates ideal for this position, I am certain I have put in more hours of work as a proof-reader and editor than would even come close to a traditional &ldquo;year&rdquo; of work. I am an extremely hard worker, detail oriented, and am very comfortable working with manuscripts prepared for publication. Even as an undergraduate (now currently working on Master&rsquo;s in Research Psychology) I have co-authored a handful of manuscripts under review in tier-1 journals, a great accomplishment that I feel humbled to have the opportunity to be a part of. Although I have worked as an editor for many years in a professional and freelance capacity, I know that good editing takes not years, but countless hours of practice and determined work. This is something I do well and would love the opportunity to continue this skill under the name of inWrite.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>Thank you,</p>
<p>Sally B. Swanson</p>
