Please find below a brief outline of my skills in application for the post you are offering.
The nature of my academic degree courses and my in depth professional experience has prepared me for this position and equipped me with the requisite skills. It involved a great deal of independent research requiring initiative, self-motivation and a wide range of skills. My extensive paralegal experience in domestic and international law firms is underpinned by vigilant proof reading and the high quality presentation of lengthy legal documents; conducting research and also producing tailored reading material for the partners as well as detailed reports to clients which are outsourced to me. My legal background also involved training on the latest file sharing software, project management software and MS Office.
My professional experience has enabled me to work on numerous academic papers from degree level to (mainly) PhD level conducting excellent proofreading and/or coupled with copy editing. I have also assisted many of my students in carrying out essential research for their papers, consulted on methodology and presentation in general. I also conduct project management and proof read/copy edit other non-fiction material such as reports and scientific papers but also enjoy working on works of fiction immensely as well.
Thank you for taking the time to consider this application and I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
