I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Wordvice in Dec 2023
Interview
The interview process was all online, so it was super easy. There was a short editing test where you would line edit two or three passages and leave comments. About a week later they got back to me with an offer. Here is the per word pay rate they offered me: 120+ hour turnaround (1.3 cents), 72-hour turnaround (1.4 cents), 48-hour turnaround (1.5 cents), 24-hour turnaround (1.6 cents), 13-hour turnaround (1.8 cents), 9-hour turnaround (2.2 cents).
Ultimately, it wasn't worth it for me, but if you can line edit 1538 words an hour, you'll make 20-30 bucks an hour pre-tax.
