Company Description

Ultius, Inc., a Delaware corporation, is the trusted provider of content solutions for consumers around the world. We utilize a staff of freelance writers to fulfill custom writing, editing, and business writing orders. Since 2010, Ultius has grown to over thirty (30) employees and over five hundred (500) writers. Our customer base is global and supported 24/7 by our Las Vegas call center and headquarters.

Job Description

We are currently looking for talented freelance writers who are strong in the academic arena. Unlike other writing services, there is no bidding and we never force you to take an order. We provide login credentials to our website, ultius(dot)com, where you can view orders, track compensation, communicate with clients and editors on existing orders, utilize our help section, and much more. We are continually updating our site with additional material and information to assist our writers. The most important aspect of writing for us is that all writers are required to complete orders according to their deadline, and within the parameters of the order instructions. You can view the full order requirements before you claim each order, which allows you to determine whether or not you can meet the requirements.


Qualifications

The preferred candidate will have at least a 4 year degree from an accredited, American based college or university, or be in active pursuit of such a degree. Here is a list of general requirements:

-Microsoft Office Suite (Word, PowerPoint, Excel)

-Academic research and formatting skills

-Personal computer with internet access

-Prompt and polite communication

-A mobile phone

-Ability to follow clear instructions

-English as a first language

-PayPal account

Additional Information

You can complete as many orders as you like, as long as they meet the instructions and are submitted on time.

We are a fast-growing company and truly value great writers. We occasionally offer generous bonuses for writers that make an effort to pick up last minute, urgency orders. We also promote from within and take writers' experiences with us very seriously. The majority of our employed staff has moved up our company's ranks while starting in this position.

Be sure to send your resume or CV, and provide a message or cover letter. Pending review of your initial resume and application, you will be asked to write a sample paper in order to demonstrate your writing skills. In the world of online writing, a sample paper is used in lieu of an in-person interview. The sample paper is used only to gauge your writing ability. It does not get sold, published, or viewed by any party besides the hiring personnel.

Compensation

We have a sliding pay scale that generally runs from $8-19 per page. The average order pays $12-14 per page (275 words, double spaced, 12 point font). With proven success, you have the ability to access our Urgency queue, which pays up to $22 per page. Payouts are automatically set by our ordering system when the customer creates their order. The main factors affecting payouts are time frame and skill level. We compensate writers twice per month via PayPal, the trusted way to pay online.

-Passion for the writing process

-Yearning for more knowledge

-Love doing research

-Willingness to communicate with customers and editors to clarify order details
