How are you pairing up writers to those who want something written? I applied as a writer, but nowhere did it ask to list any previous experience, examples, specialty etc. What's the process of selecting writers?

    Hey there,

    We hand screen all of our writers and take into account writing experience and education background. Once you have applied and we feel you would be a good fit, you will receive further requirements and instructions.

    Thanks for your interest!

      Sounds good, but how do you screen them? The application to become a writer asks for an email address and name and education level, none of which determine whether the writer is good or not. Don't you think it makes sense to ask for at least a portfolio, websites, links, etc. to judge whether they are good? Are you contacting everyone who applies as a writer right now?

        I think you bring up a good point and that is something we will look into as we grow our writer base. Currently, we are contacting all writers who have applied with additional requirements and instructions to complete the process. I appreciate your input.
