Requirements and Pay
While this company does seem to offer a great opportunity to obtain editing and proofreading jobs from home, they do require the following:
Must have experience in the areas of proofreading, editing, and/or teaching languages.
Must have a college diploma or a university degree in a related field. The website does state that a graduate degree is preferred.
English must be your first language.
Must have an average proofreading/editing speed of 1,00-1,500 words per hour.
Must have high-speed internet access.
Pay:
As far as the pay, unfortunately, I have not been able to
find a credible source to get you the correct information, however, it
does appear that they pay via Paypal. This tells me that
it is
probably not a steady job that is offered, more likely it is projects
that are offered intermittently and in fact, the company website does
state that they hire you on as independent contractors rather than an employee of the company.

Is this a U.S. only based position?

news, these proofreading jobs from home can be done from anywhere in
