• You’re detail-oriented and quality-driven. You catch every error and nuance, ensuring each sentence meets high editorial standards.
• You’re collaborative and open to feedback. You see editing as a partnership that helps writers grow.
• You’re reliable and deadline-focused. You communicate proactively if priorities shift and consistently deliver work on schedule.
