Job description

Interested in working with us for the 2021-2022 admissions season? Apply!
EssayMaster is seeking excellent freelance editors and writers educated at one of these five schools: Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Columbia, and Princeton to complete freelance editing jobs for the company.
Our editors have edited tens of thousands of admissions essays and personal statements, helping countless clients attend their first-choice school. Our goal is to level the playing field-offering the best admissions essay editing at affordable prices, democratizing a highly unequal admissions landscape.
As a freelance EssayMaster editor, you will provide tips on topic selection, rework clumsy sentences, reorganize rambling text, and proofread final essays. You receive your jobs via email and can work from your own computer and set your own hours. You are paid per completed editing job that you accept. We are only interested in freelance editors who can manage their own quality and time.
Freelance editors in the past have found the effective per job hourly rate to vary between $20 - $35 per hour, but this is dependent on the job you perform. Editors work anywhere from 5 to 40 hours a week depending on preference and quality.
We help applicants with college, business school, law school, medical school, and graduate school application essays.
A few important notes before you begin our application:
  1. We require our editors have been educated at one of these five schools: Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Columbia, and Princeton. This is a promise we make to our customers and therefore there are no exceptions.
  2. We make substantive edits. This is not a proofreading service! Nor do we write essays for clients. Tap the link for details of our editing approach and our business principles.
