Expanding author services company is looking for a full-time motivated book formatter to join our team! The job requires formatting book manuscripts for eBook (primarily Kindle) and paperback (primarily for KDP and Createspace). The skills you’ll need to do this job are:
1) Some graphic design skill, but you don’t need to be a total photoshop wiz or talented artist to be a great formatter
2) Great English ability preferred to help prevent mistakes, and to help communicate with the business owner and understand client requests (communication will be almost exclusively written communication)
3) Strong familiarity with Microsoft Word
4) Ability to work long hours at the computer doing meticulous, repetitive work without making mistakes
5) Pride and passion to do excellent work, exceeding clients’ expectations
6) Attention to detail and ability to follow direction and client demands with precision
7) A resilient attitude that isn’t hurt when receiving frequent feedback on how you can improve, or negative client feedback
8) Strong ambition for honing a highly sought after skill and becoming a great specialist in your craft
We have a willingness to overlook weaknesses in #1-7 above if you can demonstrate great strength in #8. As we always say, “You don’t have to be great, you just have to be getting better.” :)
The job is a full-time job with some training provided (although experience formatting books is a BIG plus if you have it). Starting pay is $300 per month with frequent raises as your skill and speed progress. Long-term earning potential up to $500/month and beyond. Double pay each December.
Please reply by telling us your experience level with 1-8 above and write a note as to why you think you would be a great book formatter (and ENJOY doing it!). We look forward to hearing from you!
