Required skills/resources for applying:
===============================
1) Consistency and trustworthiness. Please do not apply if you can't deliver 35-40 high-quality hours per week, with very rare exceptions.

2) A VERY reliable high-speed internet Upgrade to see actual info will be required at all times for the work you'll be doing.

3) The ability to type at least 40-50 WPM. Anything below that won't be efficient enough for this position, unfortunately.

4) A willingness to use hour-tracking software like Hubstaff. I'll be honest, I only check this when I run payroll or when a team member's productivity seems low. I don't obsess over these screenshots or even check them, usually, but I need to have them to process payroll, and to check if productivity ever seems low.

5) Excellent spoken AND written English, and the ability to be comfortable recording audio messages to strangers in English (as mentioned above, I will provide a script for this)

6) An overall commitment to doing the highest quality work you're capable of.

================================================
What you can expect from me if you're chosen for this position:
================================================

1) I won't be peeking over your shoulder 24/7. I'll train you, move out of your way, and be around ANY time you need me or if you have questions.

2) I will personally train you to do everything I request. You'll never be given a task that I haven't already thoroughly explored and figured out how to execute efficiently.

3) With the exception of team members that make too many excuses for low-quality/inconsistent work, I'm VERY understanding of you needing to move your hours around here and there, as long as the quality of work isn't being sacrificed.

Conclusion:
===========
***Please provide urls and design samples/portfolio of your most recent wordpress sites.

That's about it! I know it may not SEEM like it, because I worked really hard to scare inconsistent and non-dependable performers off early in this job description, but I work VERY hard to be kind and understanding with my team members, and any one of my current or past team members would tell you that I'm REALLY easy to work for (as long as you're consistent and dependable).

Thanks so much for taking the time to read this job description, and if I could give you ONE more piece of advice, it's to try to stand out with your application title! I get SO many every time I post a job, sometimes I only open the ones that have at least made an attempt to stand out.

I look forward to working with one of you soon! If you have ANY questions at all, please don't hesitate to include them with your application.
