 Hi there, my name is Erin. I am a freelancer with Inago and Crimson Interactive and I started as a freelancer in December of 2017. A little bit about me in my background. I have a PhD in Pharmaceutical Sciences as well as a Masters in Business Administration and I've done a lot of academic research both in biochemistry, microbiology, as well as agricultural plant sciences and as part of that journey I did a lot of writing, a lot of publishing, as well as a lot of editing both for myself and some of my colleagues including a lot of colleagues that had English as their second language so I got really familiar with editing for those who may not have the most polished English during my PhD education. First of all, they are extremely good at communicating. I had a bit of nervousness about being a freelancer and I think a lot of people do. If I talk to people who are thinking about editing and they like to make a little extra money, they'd like to do some of this editing but they are nervous about the idea of not being able to walk into their supervisor's office and ask a question. They're uncomfortable with the idea of working from home because they're not sure what the dynamic will be with their coworkers. Now Enago puts a lot of that anxiety to rest. They deal with this in an extremely inventive and extremely professional way. They are very, very good at communicating. They have project managers who are there 24 hours a day, seven days a week to answer all of your questions and as an editor there are times when an assignment occurs and you have questions about it either you need a deadline extension which you can ask for and which will be honored if they are able to honor it. You may need to ask a question about the assignment itself. You may need to get some verification on some details that may not, you just may want to ask a question. They are there for you 24 hours a day, seven days a week and you can live chat online. You don't have to wait for a phone call. You don't have to wait for an email. These things make it extremely easy to work with them no matter where you are in the world which was a really, really big deal for me. You are able to keep very close track of your invoices. You're able to submit your invoices online. They confirm that for you and they are very good at paying you fairly and promptly. I have never ever had an issue with payment. Of course they will communicate with you if you have any concerns or if you have any questions and if the need arises which I'll say it never has for me. If the need arises for you to dispute your invoice they have a way for you to do that in a really professional way. So never any problem with payments or communication. All of the departments are extremely good at getting back to you with any questions or concerns. So if you're interested in becoming a freelancer and I would suggest that you do so it's a really interesting thing, an interesting world to be a part of. You're able to stay close to research, academic research, you're able to stay abreast of all of the techniques that people are now doing while also being able to fit this experience around the rest of your daily life. I highly recommend INAGO and all of the opportunities that being a part of INAGO's community affords you.
