Cabuyao, Philippines Cardinal Education Full time

Remote Writer-Editor

Position: Full-time

Location: Remote (Work from Home)

Shift: Night Shift (PST)

Who We Are:

Cardinal Education is an elite education consulting company whose mission is to help students maximize their capacities, equipping them with the skills to thrive and become successful in and out of the classroom. We not only teach but also inspire students to unleash their potential and become better versions of themselves.

With the high percentage of successful college matriculation among our clients, we are now the most sought-after educational consultancy firm that families from Los Angeles, San Francisco, Los Altos, and other cities in the US and across the globe rely on. Cardinal Education’s reach has extended to Indonesia, Singapore, China, Oman, UAE, India, the UK, Brazil, Russia, Nigeria, South Korea, Ghana, and Egypt, and we are still growing.

The Role:

We seek a creative, motivated, and organized Writer-Editor who is deadline-oriented and intimately familiar with essay writing, prompt-based narrative writing, and other similar creative nonfiction writing. In an age where AI dominates the education sector, we continue to value the human element of our work. Our Writer-Editor will play a significant role in developing and enhancing written content for college applications, provide detailed feedback, and emphasize clarity, style, and structure.

Our ideal candidate is familiar with the college application process, exceptionally skilled as a writer, and adept at providing written feedback on nonfiction writing with an eye to style, structure, and intellectual clarity. This position will require a high level of skill and flexibility. You will be required to research a vast array of topics, depending on the interests and activities of each student. Commitment is expected during the college season (August-December) when we see an increase in assignments with fixed deadlines.

Given the niche nature of our industry, candidates can expect thorough training, resources developed specifically for the role, and regular feedback from supervisors to help them grow both personally and professionally.

If you are interested in helping students across different backgrounds strengthen their applications and achieve their goal of entering their dream college or university, we would love for you to join our team

Responsibilities:

  • Writing and Editing: The Writer-Editor will brainstorm with the College Admissions Team’s Consultants about the direction of the essays, give feedback to students, and edit the students’ rough drafts to fix grammar, clarity, style, flow, structure, and word count.
    • Candidates should expect essays to be reviewed and revised through extensive rounds of edits.
  • Research: Depending on the student’s interest and profile, the Writer-Editor will research different topics to strengthen their work.
  • Collaboration: As members of the Editing Team, Writer-Editors are expected to help team members with drafting, brainstorming, augmenting, and reviewing, especially regarding assignments with urgent deadlines.
  • Administration and Logistics: Writer-Editors are responsible for the administrative tasks associated with their assignments.
    • Communicate logistical needs with other team members
    • Organize send-outs of completed assignments to clients
    • Draft email updates and reminders regarding assigned clients
    • Schedule review meetings with Consultants and Senior Editors
    • Notetaking for other team members during review meetings
    • Prepare meeting notes for Consultants regarding the status of assignments
  • Business Development: During the off-season, the Writer-Editor can expect to work on projects that contribute to the growth of the team and company overall.
  • High-Level Skill and Integrity: We do not allow the use of any AI tools such as ChatGPT or Bard because AI-generated content will automatically disqualify a student’s application. If the Writer-Editor is found to be using AI tools, termination is effective immediately.

Requirements:

  • Exceptional English verbal and written skills with a strong grip on grammar
  • Graduated from a 4-year degree program in either English, Literature, Journalism, Education, or related fields. Graduates from other fields are encouraged to apply, but written samples will be heavily scrutinized.
  • Experience working for an education consulting company specializing in college admissions is preferred but not required.
  • Portfolio with a minimum of three written samples (one creative piece and one research sample are encouraged)
  • Experience working during PST hours is preferred but not required
  • Can edit and write skillfully without the use of AI tools
  • Willing to participate in an Internship Day before training. This will be a paid day where successful candidates spend the day shadowing team members, engaging in editing tasks, experiencing how editors review and give feedback, and observing the daily workflow of the team. It’s a chance for candidates to choose Cardinal Education after we have chosen you.

Benefits:

  • Competitive salary of $650-$900/month based on experience
  • Bi-weekly payouts
  • Probationary period to acclimate to the night shift and the industry
  • Extensive training in a niche industry
  • Opportunities for career growth and salary increase after performance reviews
  • Opportunities to work on projects with other divisions when looking to expand skillset
  • High-performing employees are considered for company retreats
