Jobs For Editors

Have you a web address? Jobs For Editors isn't much to go on.

I have been a copy editor for many years and neither myself nor my colleagues have heard of this company. It may be legit, but it is not one of the big players.

As a US-based company, you would need to be familiar with the AP Stylebook unless there is work available in UK English. You would also have to be happy to be paid in dollars, the value of which can obviously fluctuate.

Have you already applied? If so, let us know how you get on.

Website linked above (https://jobsforeditors.com/) gives a London address "We are a UK-registered company with support facilities located in Eastern Europe. " but pays in $ via either a "Prepaid Debit MasterCard, powered by Payoneer" :think: or to "a Skrill or a PayPal account".

The address appears to be the registered address, as it is occupied by an accountancy firm and there are over 470 companies registered there; however, Jobs for Editor is not listed.

It could have a different trading name, of course, but if it is registered, shouldn't its registration number be displayed on its website? Alarm bells are ringing for me.

Try;
