Careers

I was sent my first assignment shortly after being accepted and have been provided a variety of work ranging from basic letters to articles being prepared for journal submission. My specialty is engineering and the range of technical subjects assigned to me by Enago has been another pleasant surprise. Additionally, through the past several months since I was accepted as a freelancer, I have been given productive feedback by the editing team that has assisted me in sharpening my editing work.

I have been impressed that the papers assigned to me have been fairly well-prepared based on my previous experience of working with authors who are non-native English speakers. The deadlines required to have a document edited and returned to Enago have always been reasonable considering the highly technical subject matter I am typically assigned.

The invoicing procedure for Enago’s freelancers is straightforward. I am pleased to be a part of Enago’s editing team and look forward to continuing my working relationship with Enago for many more years to come.

The in-house editors are generally professional and easy to work with. The invoicing procedure is simple and efficient. In general, I am quite content with Enago and have found a way to have my Enago work fit into my busy schedule. I am pleased to be a member of Enago’s editing team, and look forward to a long relationship with the company.

Additionally, there have been instances where there were problems with a particular assignment. In every instance when I bring something to an Enago staff member's attention, the issue is addressed. When I render a professional opinion regarding the structure or content of a manuscript, that opinion is seriously considered and promptly responded to.

In the rare instance where I have issues with an assignment, Enago staffs have shown their willingness to
(1) assist me in their interactions with the author and
(2) accommodate my requests or suggestions.

These actions make all the difference. Working for Enago means having access to an extremely flexible, yet stable workload. As an academic and researcher, I enjoy much of what I am given to edit. From an operational standpoint, I have had no problems with the hiring or accounting departments. Payment has been prompt every month, and the clear and prompt communication I have received is much appreciated. I look forward to my future work with Enago.

I believe that feedback is always an imperative part of any industry. Enago’s feedback mechanism ensures not only quality control but also professional growth. I have been fortunate enough to have received a number of feedbacks, from which I have learned something new every time. Moreover, the quality analysts show excellent subject-matter expertise and overall competence in handling and reviewing files.

The highlight of my experience with Enago is flexibility of time. I have been able to plan other activities around my work schedule, which frees up more time for family and friends. Consequently, I am able to keep a positive attitude each time I work on a file, which keeps things fresh and interesting. The payment set-up and invoice generation are fairly straightforward.

Enago has given me the opportunity to experience comprehensive pay with flexible work scheduling—every freelancer’s dream. This is precisely why I plan on committing to a long-term relationship with the company. I have recommended a few friends, some of which are already with ENAGO, and will continue to recommend Enago to qualified individuals. I hope to build a lasting relationship with the company henceforth.

Enago also provides helpful feedback so that we can continue to produce high-quality manuscripts to our clients. Workload has been consistent and has actually increased with experience and performance, and payments for assignments have been consistently on time. As a freelancer, both of these points are very important!

Enago also provides online forms on its website to request time off so that information on any vacations or other scheduled leaves can be provided to them to enable them to redistribute its workload. I also appreciate that Enago will work with me when there are deadline conflicts so that we can continue to ensure excellent service without missing any client deadlines.

Enago is a great company with whom to partner and is proud to provide excellent service to its clients.

If I have other commitments or take leave, it is simple to update my availability on the web portal so that I am not sent jobs if I am unavailable for a length of time. The types of assignments have been quite varied, some closely related to my area of expertise and some more distant but still within the limits of my educational background and experience. I have found the variety really interesting and learnt a lot in the process.

The quality of the manuscripts is also quite good; some are more difficult than others but most require only an average amount of editing. If I have a query regarding an assignment it is usually addressed within a short time, even on weekends. In addition, the payment procedure is simple and more accurate than my own accounting. On occasion I have missed adding jobs to the Excel spreadsheet invoice that is submitted each month but this has been picked up by the finance team and appropriate payment was made.

The assignments vary widely in terms of subject matter and language level. I’ve also learned that sometimes you will spend much longer on a poorly written assignment and other times you’ll spend very little time on a very well written assignment, meaning that both the time commitment and hourly pay even out. Given this, I feel that the pay is more than fair and am quite happy from a financial perspective.
There are many benefits for working with Enago. The first being flexibility; I can work from anywhere and don’t have to account time for transportation to/from work and can book vacation days as needed, which is great. The other is a simple payment procedure; I fill my invoice on a monthly basis and the amount is wire transferred to my bank account in my own currency. Feedback is the other benefit; I receive feedbacks on my work that has helped me to learn what is expected in terms of consistency and relevant aspects, which I feel has made me a better and more consistent editor, even with my personal clients. Last but not the least consistency of work ensures that I continue to work for Enago most days of the week.

Finally, it goes without saying that I enjoy editing and the chance to continually learn new things in other fields!

I had never edited pre-submission manuscripts before, and I love being able to contribute to improving the presentation of the content and providing feedback to the authors that will help increase the chances of having a successful publication. As a former scientist, I appreciate that the publication process is often quite challenging, particularly when the native language of the researcher is not English, and it’s very satisfying to be able to help authors make their work as good as it can be. The level of intervention varies between assignments. There are occasionally papers that take considerably longer to complete, but in these cases the deadlines can usually be extended. I have also found the feedback from the Enago team to be very beneficial; as I had only worked for one publisher previously and received my training in-house, the guidance here was essential to help me understand the mechanics of this particular job and I found it highly constructive.

In summary, I would thoroughly recommend working for Enago; the editing process gives me the opportunity to use my science background, while the company is efficient and extremely professional in its approach. In addition, freelancing allows the editor to work flexibly from home and I greatly appreciate this aspect of the job.

I enjoy helping scientists convey their research in English so that they have an opportunity to reach a wider audience. Communication with project managers has been very easy and payment is always prompt.

My first contact with Enago was through LinkedIn. Soon after completing the test edit exercise and the necessary forms, I began receiving copyediting assignments and substantive edits shortly thereafter. Enago distinguishes itself in many ways. While most other groups give editors the choice of accepting or rejecting assignments, Enago encourages us to provide specific reasons for making that choice and sometimes can adjust deadlines to accommodate a heavy work load. The Project Management team quickly adjusted their offers to subjects that I felt comfortable working with. I quite like the occasional telephone calls from the project management team to discuss urgent work that needs attention.

The feedback from the quality team is always constructive and has helped me improve my work and not forget to consult the freelance editors' handbook.

It's a real benefit that the invoicing procedure is convenient; payment is always regular and on time, and the invoice is checked for errors by the accounts team before processing.

I must say "Well done Enago" and I hope that we will work together for a long time.

Once I began work for Enago, I received my first assignment within a few days. The assignments are provided through email with all the pertinent information contained within the text or as an attachment. This is convenient, as there is no need to log in to other webpages. The frequency at which I received assignments increased after my first month with Enago and further, after a few more months, I was added to the pool of freelance editors with a secondary contract that guarantees I receive a set minimum of assignments each month (you can still complete as many assignments as you like).

The Enago team is very responsive to any questions I may have about deadlines or specific content within assignments. The assignments range in size as well as in the effort needed to correct the document. However, the vast majority of assignments are straightforward, and the Enago Handbook clearly reviews the recommended editing style. I am also provided helpful feedback on my completed assignments every month or so. The payment schedule is consistent and simple. Invoices are submitted at the start of every month and payment is received near the start of the following month.

Overall, I am very happy with my decision to work as a freelance editor for Enago and anticipate a long and fruitful working relationship with this great team.

Communicating with Enago is always a pleasure. Their in-house staff does a splendid job at issuing work, providing constructive and supportive feedback, and dealing promptly with invoices and payments. Occasionally, a proposed deadline might be unsuitable or a project might require more clarification. The in-house staff is always flexible at such times, and will gladly work with you to find a way around the problem.

I am happy to recommend Enago to anyone who is looking either to get started in academic editing or to expand their editorial portfolio. I work mainly in the math/engineering/physics slice of the editorial spectrum, and Enago suits me as both a subject specialist and a general editor. Give Enago a go – you won’t regret it.

Enago is open to feedback about their processes and respond quickly to any suggestions/queries. I feel that Enago’s processes are constantly being updated and improved and that freelancers are kept up to date on these changes.

The project management team responds quickly and efficiently, and any problems are quickly resolved.

Also, I like that the editing guidelines are thorough—when I have had questions in the past regarding these guidelines, the feedback team has been quick to answer my questions, and have done so very comprehensively.

The assignments are varied and often really interesting. Most of the assignments I receive fall within my areas of expertise, and it is actually quite nice to sometimes receive different subjects, although the “no obligation” ability to reject manuscripts is essential in some cases!

I have received feedback on several assignments since I began work. All of the feedback I have received has been useful, and is greatly appreciated.

The payment procedure is simple and I’ve had no problems. Thanks to the finance team for a good job! Also, the work arrives at a steady pace, which is great—I’m really happy with how much I’m sent.

To be accepted onto the Enago editorial team, I had to take an editing test. After I had passed this test and completed all the paperwork, I began receiving assignments. Enago only sends me manuscripts that are related to my field of expertise. This means that I can understand what the author is trying to say and can help them communicate their findings in the best possible manner. Sometimes, only light copyediting is required, but often the manuscript needs a lot of editing to get it up mark. I am happy to do both kinds of editing and always feel connected to an author when I work on his/her manuscript. I want to help them get their hard work published. Enago helps me ensure that I provide the best possible level of editing by providing me with regular feedback. I am happy to say that Enago has been very satisfied with the work I do and asked me to join their team of distinguished editors within a few months of my joining the editing team. This means that I receive a guaranteed workload each month; great news for any freelancer! Enago goes to great lengths to support their editors, simply because they want to ensure the best quality editing for all their clients. For these reasons, I am happy to be working with Enago and look forward to many fruitful years to come.

Enago actively encourages communication, including feedback from their editors, which makes me feel appreciated and valued. The editing guidelines and expectations are clear, payments are prompt, and I find the assignments to be a good match in terms of subject area. Their assignment emails give me all the information I need to estimate how long an edit will take, which is incredibly useful for time-management purposes.

Also, I appreciate how clear their communication is, and I always receive prompt responses to any questions I have about an assignment.

One of the best things about working with Enago is the excellent project management team. They do an incredibly difficult job very well. Although the subject area survey provides a substantial amount of detail regarding the subjects an editor is capable of working with, I imagine it must be challenging to gain familiarity with the specific expertise of each freelancer. Nonetheless, they are very good at consistently sending appropriate assignments. I believe they really make a sincere effort to find the best match between assignment subject area and editor expertise. Furthermore, they are always responsive regarding requests for information about files, deadlines, and specific questions regarding job instructions. I truly appreciate their timely responses to all queries and the consistently professional and capable manner in which they do so—regardless of time zone differences. They are very respectful of schedule availability as well. I have not had any problems with requests for time off or changes in my availability. The lines of communication regarding schedule availability are open and the system is easily navigable.

One of the greatest concerns for freelancers is workflow. I honestly have not had any problems with the workflow at Enago. The workflow is very consistent, despite availability changes. It seems as if there would be enough work if I wanted to work much more. At the same time, I feel that I would not be penalized if I had to cut back. Therefore, I believe that both consistent workflow and scheduling flexibility are possible at Enago. I also appreciate the highly professional communication regarding the feedback process. It is refreshing to receive feedback that is constructive and sincerely helpful. The advice provided is never reproachful, but sound and easily applicable to future assignments. The process allows you to develop and polish your skills on any level.

Although I work at home, I still feel like I am part of a team. Newsletters provide updates and useful information regarding the company. Attention to various holidays is thoughtful and inclusive. The accounts team is super friendly even if you contact them regarding invoices or payment questions. I am grateful to be working with such a great group of people. I have no complaints or concerns and would encourage anyone with a strong work ethic and positive attitude to join us. I hope that my work experience with Enago continues to be as productive and enjoyable as it has been so far.

Overall, I’m really pleased to have signed up with Enago, and I hope that we can go on working together long term. Now I just have to get back to my own research, which the Enago work gives me enough time to do.

Most clients have a good command on English and the work involves oversights in language, ensuring consistency, and spotting gaps in content. There is the occasional very badly written manuscript: that, to me, is a fun challenge as with Enago, feedback to the author is in many formats, including comments inserted in the manuscript or more detailed remarks where suggestions can be made to the authors. That allows me to more completely convey the reasons behind certain adjustments I might make and to give suggestions in a more efficient manner.

The interaction with the management team in India has been superb. They are always on time in responding to my queries with assignments and are always understanding of the fact that I have a full-time job and I am not always flexible in accepting assignments. Crucially, when I might need extra time, the management team is always accommodating. The feedback I have gotten from the editing team in India since I started has always been positive, helpful and I believe has made me a better scientific writer.

The invoicing process is smooth, and the payments are accurate and on time. After I upload my invoice, I get an acknowledgement email. Next month, the payment is directly deposited to my US bank account within the first 10 days. So far, I have been very happy with the rates despite month-to-month variabilities due to the nature of freelance work.

In summary, I am extremely happy to become a member of Enago and look forward to many years with the company.

Over the first month, the assignments were short and comprised predominantly of copyediting tasks. I preferred this approach as it meant that I was not too overloaded from the start and could get to grips with the editing quality standards required, which are efficiently detailed in the Enago Editor’s Handbook. The number of words to edit per assignment steadily increased over this initial month, and in the second month I began receiving substantive editing assignments that require more input from the editor, for example, directions and suggestions to the authors for how to improve their manuscripts for a given journal or audience. In the third month, I was offered a 12-month contract with Enago as a Consultant Freelance Editor, which ensures you receive a set amount of work each month and an assured income provided you reach the agreed number of edited words.

I have enjoyed my time with Enago. The company cares about its freelance editors, and communication is always polite and two-way so that both parties can benefit. My editing skills have improved substantially, particularly through Enago’s regular quality control feedback on areas I can improve on and the monthly report for each Freelancer. The assignments that have been sent to me are almost always within my field, and there is no obligation to accept any assignment sent, which is great if you have busy weeks. Communication with Enago has always been professional, complete, and friendly; the deadlines are reasonable and in accordance with the number of words to edit; and I have had no problem with payments to my accounts. I would recommend Enago to other scientific editors and look forward to continuing my relationship with the company.

Shortly after joining the Enago freelancer pool, I was offered a one-year contract, which guarantees a monthly income in return for my guarantee of editing a certain number of words per month.

I am always looking forward to the next assignment and very much hope that I will continue to work for Enago well into the future!

Communication with Enago has been consistent and prompt. All enquiries that I have made to them have been answered within a few hours. Enago has also provided prompt feedback on editing tasks that I have completed, and their constructive criticism has helped me become a better editor.

I have found that work from Enago has been very consistent and of high volume. I am also very satisfied with the editing rate that they have offered me. The subjects of the assignments offered to me by Enago are often not specifically within my field, but I have rarely received an editing task that was so far removed from my specialization that I could not perform the edit satisfactorily. Enago often offers editing jobs that are urgent and due in a day or less. However, freelance editors are not placed under any pressure to accept such assignments.

To date, I have found the accounts department at Enago to be very efficient and accurate, and my monthly editing payments from Enago have all gone through promptly and correctly.

My experience with Enago has given me the impression that the company is extremely well structured and efficient, and I am happy and grateful to have built a relationship with them.

Feedback is given regularly and the freelance editor is asked to reply so that he/she has a chance to explain his/her decision on why the document was edited in a certain way. This provides a learning opportunity for the freelance editor. It has helped me to significantly improve my editing and will continue to do so.

The Enago editors and other team members are very helpful and are always available to answer questions. After receiving an assignment and reading through it quickly, the freelance editor can ask a question(s) about the assignment, and the Enago team replies well within the time frame given for the assignment. Any other questions are always answered quickly. The assignments are given with a deadline suitable for the assignment. Initially, it may seem that the time frame is not adequate to complete the assignment, but if the freelance editor reads through the assignment he/she will realize the amount of work is appropriate for the time that is given. If there is a problem with the assignment time frame the freelance editor can either contact Enago or reject the assignment.

I enjoy my editing assignments and look forward to working on them. I am very happy to be working with Enago and look forward to more assignments.

I managed to complete the piece and return it within the deadline, and I was given very helpful feedback by the feedback team. Over the course of completing the next few assignments, I developed the mode of working required and found that I was able to cope with the huge variations in style, standard of English, and technical complexity contained within the manuscripts. While the standard of English overall is quite reasonable considering the fact that most of the authors are non-native English speakers, there is the occasional article that is very poorly written, for which extra time is usually allowed for completion. Where sense and meaning are not clear, the editor would normally insert a query for the authors to clarify that particular section. One time-consuming aspect of editing is the reference section, but this does not require editing in Enago assignments, merely a check to ascertain that references have been cited correctly and are relevant to the subject matter.

The editing team at Enago is always extremely helpful and informative, and any queries are invariably dealt with very promptly. One very useful aspect for the freelancer is the monthly report, which provides feedback on many aspects of the previous month’s work, on an assignment-by-assignment basis. I have picked up many useful pointers with regard to accurate scientific editing from this, and continue to do so. On occasions, an email with specific critique has come my way and this ensures self-audit and attention to detail to get it right first time.

The invoicing procedure for Enago’s freelancers is both simple and efficient. I upload my invoice for the previous month within the first 5 days of the following month, and the money is usually in my UK bank account via PayPal shortly after. On an hourly basis, rates can vary quite a bit among assignments, but overall I am extremely happy with the current rates paid since the amount of work per month is constant, with potential for multiple briefs per day.

In conclusion, I am happy to be a member of Enago’s editing team and look forward to many more productive years with the company. The company must also be happy with the partnership as they have recently offered me a contract guaranteeing at least a four figure income per annum.

Many of the jobs I receive are not within my immediate field; however, I find that I am now much more comfortable stepping outside my comfort zone and am learning a lot of different kinds of chemistry that I was previously unfamiliar with. Overall, the English in the manuscripts is quite good, with the odd poorly written manuscript that requires more time and effort. Although the hourly pay with some manuscripts is less, in general the pay is quite good as some manuscripts require much less time.

On occasions, you are given a great deal of work that you do not have time to finish. When this happens, the editing team is very willing to help shuffle around deadlines if you still wish to work on all the assignments. There is also the possibility to reject any assignments, making your schedule very flexible.

A month after I began working for Enago, I was offered a yearly contract after being tested with a larger workload for two weeks. I gladly accepted the contract, which has provided me with a much larger quantity of work, which is much more consistent, but still with the ability to take holidays and reject whatever jobs I wish.

The editing team at Enago is always very friendly, professional, and accommodating, with very prompt replies and feedback. Feedback is provided in a few different methods, with the main method being the monthly reports, which are very helpful in telling you how you performed the month before. The feedback is very helpful as it often reminds you of language rules you had either forgotten or did not know. This helped me tremendously in the beginning, and still does.

It has been a great experience that has taught me so much, and a great alternative to the traditional industry or research jobs.

The flow of work has been extremely satisfying. There are plenty of assignments available and it is up to the editor to accept or reject these based on their desired work load and their approved monthly target of edited words. Assignments can range from a few hundred words to many thousands, and the standard of English ranges quite considerably. The Project Management Team does an excellent job of ensuring that you receive assignments across this range; some documents are quite well written, while others require considerable intervention. Sometimes the deadlines are tight, but never impossible.

As an editor, I am constantly attempting to hone my skills. One of the most satisfying aspects of working for Enago is the excellent feedback given. The quality assurance team is highly skilled and can offer insights to the editing process that prove invaluable.

Payment for the work is fair and comparable with other forms of freelance editing. Invoices are paid monthly by direct deposit to my US bank account. This system works well. As a second form of income, freelance editing with Enago suits my needs very well.

Overall, I feel very privileged to work for Enago. The company has a genuine respect for its clients and its freelance editors. I would recommend Enago without hesitation.

Another point of flexibility is my “office.” With my trusty laptop, spiral notebook with a pencil stuck in the coils, and a mouse and mouse-pad, I have a complete office. This office can go in a bag in a few seconds and travel anywhere with me. I live in Florida, but I have completed assignments on airplanes and in cars (with someone else driving!), in California, Washington, Arkansas, and points between. Sometimes I head to McDonald’s or the local library for an Internet connection, and Enago and I are all set for efficient work.

After what I consider my apprentice year of editing and a fully established professional relationship with Enago, I began to appreciate the staff’s flexibility. They obviously want to do an excellent job, but do not manifest the rigidity that makes doing so unnecessarily difficult. They’ve all been personable and polite and seem to have the oh-so-necessary sense of humor about things, especially on the telephone. And this includes the accounting department too! Enago provides helpful guidelines, quick responses to questions and problems, and their excellent QA staff provide positive feedback. As with all human endeavors, misunderstandings and miscommunications sometimes occur; these are handled without rancor, on a let’s-go-forward basis. When possible, project coordinators have worked with me to adjust assignments or deadlines to suit both our needs, and there’s no boomerang effect when I reject an assignment, go on vacation, or am ill. The staff show remarkable respect for others’ lives.

Eventually, we expanded my subject areas for editing, so I get to absorb a variety of significant information. I’m proud to be working in a globalized pursuit, in an admittedly indirect, but also intimate, way with people from all over the world. They are adding to our knowledge, improving the environment and our health and quality of life—in short, working in a positive way to maintain and improve our lives on Earth—and, by editing with Enago, I have the privilege of contributing to that.

I applied at Enago, and after a selection process, involving a single thoroughly designed test, I received my first assignment. I was required to transform a piece of text around 4000 words long, written by a non-native English speaker, into grammatically correct English while obeying the rules of scientific journal writing. Many assignments came my way and I learned to select the ones I was comfortable with, choosing topics that would be close to my research background. I am lucky in this respect as I was involved in research projects covering areas as diverse as obesity, immunology, cardiology, genetics and development.

The Project Management team at Enago is always extremely helpful and informative, and any queries are invariably dealt with very promptly. One very useful aspect for the freelancer is the monthly report, which provides feedback on many aspects of the previous month’s work, on an assignment-by-assignment basis. I have picked up many useful pointers with regard to accurate scientific editing from this, and continue to do so.

The invoicing procedure for Enago’s freelancers is simple and efficient. I upload my invoice for the previous month within the first 5 days of the following month, and the money is usually in my US bank account via wire transfer shortly after. On an hourly basis, rates can vary quite a bit among assignments, but overall I am extremely happy with the current rates paid.

In conclusion, I am happy to be a member of Enago’s editing team, and look forward to many more fruitful years with the company.

Regarding “what would I prefer to do most”, I must admit I enjoy much more substantive editing assignments and jobs such as pre-publication peer-review, or journal selection assistance, where I believe my skills and experience can be most useful for our authors. In terms of topics, variety is beautiful, and I truly enjoy receiving manuscripts from what could not appear to be my immediate area of expertise. Yet, I believe it is within my core expertise (environmental sciences, ecology, agriculture, microbiology, climate change and earth sciences) where I shine the most.

Enago also supports my development as an editor with regular and extremely helpful feedback that is delivered in a supportive and informative manner. The Enago style guides are helpful, and I often consult them during editing. On the business side, the rate of pay is very competitive with other companies and the monthly invoice system is simple and the payments are reliable.

Here are my general impressions:

As with editing generally, at times assignments can come in droves and at other times they can trickle in. That is the nature of the business. Usually, the deadlines can be met with little problem. Sometimes they are very tight. But if I can’t fit them into my schedule, I immediately let Enago know so they can find another editor in the subject matter. This is not usually a problem.

Most of the clients in my field are located in China, Japan, and Korea. I sometimes work on documents for clients in Germany, Switzerland, or Austria. I really like seeing the research coming out of these regions. The writing of these scholars is always very well organized. And as organization is one of the most important aspects of good writing, I feel that this part of the job is relatively easy. Rarely do I have to move text from one section to another. For the most part, the quality of the writing is very good. In fact, there are times when I wonder why a particular client even needs an editor, but am nevertheless happy to receive assignments that I don’t consider to be a real slog. On the other hand, there are those assignments where one wonders why the author didn’t get a translator because the English is so bad. But, in general, the well-written assignments more than make up for the ones that take a great deal of time to tidy up and prepare for publication.

Enago gives monthly feedback on your work, on an assignment-by-assignment basis. The in-house editor points out aspects of the editing that were exceptionally good and other areas that could have used a bit more attention, using an example to illustrate what he means. As such, the feedback is an opportunity to learn and improve, which a good editor should always strive to do. The Enago Monthly Newsletter also has some editing pointers and is fun to read. Editors are also encouraged to contribute.

On payment: Enago is completely honest, trustworthy, and prompt. Oftentimes, I forget to record some of the assignments I have completed in a particular month (with apologies to the accounting team members). They immediately contact me with the relevant assignment codes and amounts and the adjustment to the total invoice, which I then readjust on my own invoice and resubmit. Payment is on a monthly basis.

On the pay scale: I have to be honest about this one. At first, I was making very little money. This is because this type of work was new to me. The manuscripts are scholarly, so the discussion is very detailed, dense and sometimes complicated. The work is much more difficult than revising government or development bank documents. It took me several months to get used to this level of work. Now, as I have learned a great deal during the process of revising so many scholarly papers, I can oftentimes expeditiously complete the required revisions. Nevertheless, there are still times when the work goes slowly as my knowledge of a topic might require that I research an unfamiliar term. I always want to do quality work. And as this is the first priority, sometimes I don’t make much money on an hourly basis and sometimes I do very well. I feel that it all balances out. Also, I feel strongly that when working for Enago, I have the privilege of working on scholarly research at the highest level. In fact, Enago even has some Nobel laureates as clients. In general, after 2 years at Enago and after having improved my skills and learned more about working on papers for scholars whose first language is not English, I am pleased with the money I am making with this company.

On the Enago staff: I can’t say enough about how courteous the staff is, whether via email or on the telephone. They promptly answer any queries I might have about an assignment. If they need something done promptly and telephone about it, they are always really courteous. I have worked for organizations where people are nasty and rude, but this does not apply to Enago. I love working for this company and hope to do so for a very long time.

The length of the assignments is variable, from short abstracts (200 words) to long manuscripts (up to 10,000 words). Even the amount of time I spend on each manuscript varies. Sometimes I receive very well-written papers that need a light editing; instead, other times, I receive manuscripts poorly written that are difficult to understand and to edit. When the message is not clear, I bring it to the attention of the author through comments, without editing it. The work load is constant, but the amount of words/assignment is not always the same. There are periods when I receive longer manuscripts and periods when I receive shorter ones. The subjects of the assignments are various and often match my expertise; when I receive manuscripts that I am not comfortable with, I reject them. If the deadline is too tight, it is possible to ask for an extension. The communication with the Project Management Team is really good. They respond to the emails immediately, elucidating any concern or doubt I have on the work. There are always editors available day and night during the week and on Saturdays.

Every month I receive a report on some of the documents I edited the previous month. It is a helpful feedback on my editing that serves me to understand the quality expected from Enago and to pick up new tips.

The payment method is efficient. I receive the payment in my US account regularly every month, after an email communicating the payment. I have never had any problems with this process. The rates are not very high, but the workload is constant, which is not always the case for a freelance job.

In conclusion, I am happy with my experience at Enago and hope to consolidate this work relationship in the following years.

Usually the assignments offered are in my subject area, but sometimes I have edited assignments in other areas. The manuscripts provided are on various topics within my area; this helps me to maintain a wide knowledge within my field. The original English of the assignments is of widely varying quality, from almost native-speaker standard to clearly not fluent. The manuscripts written in very good English are in some ways as much of a challenge as the poorly written ones! This is because it is easy to become absorbed in reading a well-written manuscript, and concentration is required to ensure that mistakes are not skipped over. In general my workload from Enago is fairly consistent, and I rarely have to decline work because of having too many assignments.

The payment procedure is straightforward. I am paid about a month after the invoice is submitted.

Working as a freelancer gives me great flexibility, but also a lack of security. The contract that Enago offered me, in which they agree to give me and I agree to do at least a certain amount of work per month, gives me the best of both worlds—I have a certain guaranteed income, but I can still turn down individual assignments (within reasonable limits).

Overall, my experience with Enago has been positive, and I hope to keep working with the company in future.

I have been particularly pleased to find that Enago seems to have a strong commitment to quality work, which is supported by a strong in-house quality control team. Finally, the accounts department is efficient in communicating payment information and keeping freelancers up-to-date on the status of payments and invoices. Importantly, payment has always been prompt.

I have also been pleased with the type of work and subject areas allocated to me for editing. My primary area of expertise is Neurosciences and I have received a substantial number of assignments in this specific area. In addition, Enago has assigned me a good number of assignments in other related areas (in which I have some experience and expertise), which has allowed me to expand my editorial scope and increase my earning ability.

One final positive feature about working with Enago is the flexibility they allow. I have been able to work around a transatlantic move, birth of a child, and changes in my professional schedule in the past year with ease and Enago has been very understanding and consistent in assigning me projects when I am available. The ability to work completely from home and on one’s own schedule is invaluable and Enago makes this very possible.

Overall, I rate Enago very highly and would recommend them to any editor looking for freelance work. They are certainly among the best companies I have worked with in a freelance capacity.

Further, as a peer reviewer for a number of scientific journals, I also look forward to working for authors who request Enago to delve more into the scientific presentation and substance of the articles, as opposed to traditional language editing. This also allows me to use my core subject expertise in assisting and guiding our clients for producing their best possible research work.

The coordinators, both editorial and feedback, have always been very cordial, professional, and efficient. In addition to being prompt with their responses to my queries and the flexibility provided when I need it the most, the detailed and organized description of all assignments sent also make my work much easier and less error prone. Further, the payments department is always prompt and extremely efficient with a double cross-check system that fills all the gaps. Communication with these departments has always been effective, informative, and most importantly, timely.

All in all, working for Enago has been a very motivating, an extremely enjoyable, and a professionally enriching experience, one that I expect to maintain for many years to come.

The editorial coordinators with whom I interact regularly are accessible, personable, and unfailingly polite.

Enago pay rates for freelancing are fair. They can’t be judged according to the editing prices for clients displayed on their website, because the company frequently negotiates pricing with clients based on a variety of factors. I’ve found the pay to be comparable to or higher than that of other companies.

Admittedly, there is an ebb and flow to the workload, but this is the case with freelancing in general. Nobody I know is becoming wealthy as a freelance editor. I’ve earned thousands of dollars from Enago and have consistently received my payment on time.

We have all heard of Google, Yahoo, and YouTube. These three American companies have won the Red Herring award in the past. Last year, Enago made it into their ranks when venture capitalists and entrepreneurs awarded the company the Red Herring award as one of the top 100 companies in the Asia-Pacific region. No other academic editing company has made it into the top 100.

The world has been transformed in the last decade or so. Whether some of us are open to accepting it or not, the editorial coordinators and managers at companies like Enago are now potentially our colleagues and employers.

I managed to complete the piece and return it within the deadline, and I was given very helpful feedback by the editing team in India. Over the course of completing the next few assignments, I developed the mode of working required, and found that I was able to cope with the huge variations in style, standard of English and technical complexity of the manuscripts. While the standard of English overall is quite reasonable considering the fact that most of the authors are non-native English speakers, there is the occasional manuscript that is very badly written, for which extra time is usually allowed for completion. Where sense and meaning are not clear, the editor would normally insert a query for the authors to clarify that particular section.

The editing team at Enago is always extremely helpful and informative, and any queries are invariably dealt with very promptly. One very useful aspect for the freelancers is the Monthly Report, which provides feedback on many aspects of the previous month’s work, on an assignment-by-assignment basis. I have picked up many useful pointers with regard to accurate scientific editing from this, and continue to do so.

The invoicing procedure for Enago’s freelancers is simple and efficient. I upload my invoice for the previous month within the first 5 days of the following month, and the money is usually in my UK bank account via wire transfer shortly after. On an hourly basis, rates can vary quite a bit among assignments, but overall I am extremely happy with the current rates paid.

In conclusion, I am happy to be a member of Enago’s editing team, and look forward to many more fruitful years with the company.

The team at Enago is also able to mitigate the few negatives I have experienced with their prompt support upon notification of said concerns. On balance, I can definitely recommend Enago to prospective freelance editors and clients alike.

The work is really suitable if you wish to work from home, and have the skillset and experience to edit a variety of material written by non-native English speakers. It is both satisfying and rewarding. I would definitely recommend this company for anyone wanting to contribute toward better and effective communication of scientific studies.

I recommend Enago to anyone looking for freelance copyediting work.

The communication is excellent and I am contacted almost daily with offers of projects to take on. The emails very clearly state what is required from the editor as well as the deadline and fee. The editor then just has to select whether or not they are able to take on the project by clicking on one of two links. It could not be simpler. Feedback on the copy editor's work is given regularly to encourage professional development and to ensure that a high standard is maintained.

With regard to invoicing, Enago provides a template that is completed and submitted once per month and payment is received within one month.

I would recommend Enago to other copy editors for their professional approach and good communication.

This was all done quickly and I started receiving assignments thereafter. Assignments get offered to you by email and you also return them electronically. Everything is very clear and smooth—you skim through each assignment before deciding whether to accept it, and deadlines and payment amounts are always clearly specified. If there’s ever a query or a glitch, the Project Management team is always on hand to help. Through Enago, I have consistent, regular work and I get to edit some really interesting research which adheres well to my interests. Sometimes the quality of the English used in editing assignments is to a very good standard whilst at other times substantial intervention is required; it can be very satisfying to be able to garner and distil meanings that were intended by authors but were lacking because they’re not native English speakers. Beyond editing I also complete other assignments specifically geared towards academic publishing in the form of journal selection reports and pre-submission peer-reviews for prospective authors. I particularly enjoy the latter; they’re stimulating and put my subject knowledge to the test. I regularly receive feedback on completed assignments from the freelance quality team at Enago which is a good way to gauge how I’m doing and ensure that I keep working to maintain required quality standards. In terms of getting paid, you keep a record of each assignment you’ve completed and submit this invoice electronically once a month. I’ve never had a problem with this system—submitting invoices is straightforward and I’ve always been paid on time and for the amounts I’ve claimed. I am now offered a contract which guarantees me a minimum monthly income. I still get to work as before – flexibly, from home, and with no compulsion to accept assignments if my schedule is full. Overall I find the work that I do stimulating and rewarding; it puts my qualifications and experience in research and teaching at different universities to good use, and I would recommend Enago to those who are considering engaging in this line of work.

The assignments can be accepted, rejected, or additional time to complete an assignment may be requested. It is a very flexible arrangement. The content of the assignments is often very interesting to read and it feels good to help scientists convey their research in more fluid and improved language. The assignments are often within my expertise, but sometimes they are only peripherally related to my area of expertise. I view this positively, as editing content outside my immediate knowledge sphere expands my overall scientific literacy. For those looking for a regular source of income, Enago offers a contract that ensures assignments of a fixed minimum word count for a fixed minimum salary. Payment is straightforward and regular. I consistently receive payments within one month after submitting an invoice. I highly recommend editing for Enago if you are a person who is meticulous and loves to read science. Working for Enago is a great way to make some extra income while helping non-native English speakers put forth their excellent research work.

The documents were written by non-native English speakers and my job was to edit the text as per the requirements and rules provided. In spite of these challenges, I enjoyed working on all my initial assignments and have been enjoying my time with the company, ever since. Over time, my experience with Enago has helped me learn more about the editing process and become a better editor. Another great aspect of working for Enago is the flexibility that it provides. I can work from anywhere and at anytime during the day, as long as I finish my assignments within the deadlines provided.

Enago also has a very reliable system of payment. I upload my invoice for the assignments I have edited and receive my payment in the following month. Furthermore, I am satisfied with the editing rates that I am paid.

Overall, I am happy to be part of the Enago team and look forward to many more productive years with the company.

I received editing feedback for one of my earlier assignments, which brought my attention to several Enago formatting standards that I have since automatically accommodated into my subsequent assignments. These standards are provided to editors, but can initially be overwhelming when getting used to the workflow process. Hence, the initial feedback was very useful in bringing attention to particular standards that may not have been initially observed.

The flexibility in assignments at Enago is rather good. Because of the smooth communication process previously mentioned, extensions in deadlines, both short and long, can easily be discussed with the editing team. Should a period of unavailability arise, it is also extremely simple to notify Enago, after which they will promptly note the relevant dates.

Every initial assignment email contains all the relevant information that an editor would require to prepare the deliverable files in an accurate and timely manner – the Editor Handbook or the templates for any additional files that may be required. The manuscripts are almost by definition at the cutting-edge of science, and learning is constant. My background in general medicine and basic science at a translational level enables me to work on assignments that belong to various fields of medicine and biomedical research. This variety adds to the overall great experience of working with Enago. The Project Management team takes exquisite care to select assignments that match my primary fields of expertise and strives to ensure that the time provided for each assignment is sufficient; not only are they are always prompt in replying to my queries, but they also take the time to contact me personally every time there is a new assignment that requires a faster turnaround than usual or would represent additional workload. Holistically, the entire process of assigning work to freelance editors is very flexible and allows me to accept the amount of work that fits my schedule.

The feedback is continuous and immensely helpful—the personalized monthly feedback report details a wealth of aspects regarding my performance, including assignment-specific comments. Moreover, the Project Management team makes every effort to take the comments of the freelance editors into account by further streamlining the standard procedure for working on and delivering the assignments.

The payment process is efficient, simple, and reliable, and the payments are wired directly to my bank account.

It is a privilege to find myself at this interface between the researchers and the research community and to do my best to facilitate this vital communication as part of Enago’s mission. As a passionate advocate of science and lifelong learning, I am very grateful for this excellent opportunity to learn and grow and I look forward to continuing this tremendously rewarding collaboration.

Post signing the contract, I have been receiving a steady stream of assignments under my area of specialty, ranging from small manuscript submissions to larger (book/thesis) documents. They range from very-well written pieces to others that require substantial intervention. The work is engaging, rewarding, and I enjoy keeping up with current scientific developments.

The teams involved are always very helpful if I have any questions, and the feedback protocols are prompt, helpful, and ensure that my work is quality controlled. Leaves can be pre-booked and Enago is understanding and accommodates my needs.

I am very happy with the way that things are progressing with Enago and look forward to continuing this relationship with then for a long time to come.

Before I started receiving assignments, I had to go through a style guide, which contained most standards and requirements of Enago. I found this form of introduction very useful, and I still go back to it and check certain issues when in doubt. The clear expectation setting between the two involved parties was extremely useful. Besides that, I receive monthly reports, which provide feedback about my performance alongside very useful advice. The Enago team is extremely helpful in guiding freelancers with their queries and usually reply within minutes. In addition, Enago treats me with respect and maintains a friendly, but professional, relationship.

In general, I enjoy working in the editing team of Enago, and if you are looking for new opportunities as a freelance copyeditor, I encourage you to contact them immediately.

The payment procedure is simple and efficient, reflecting Enago’s overall style. It allows for client input, which also reflects Enago’s commitment to feedback and customer service. The proprietary editing manuals and individualized monthly feedback messages have been invaluable. I would not hesitate to partner with ENAGO again for a productive, collaborative work experience.

Throughout this duration, I have been very happy with the communication and support. Every interaction I have had with Enago has been professional and helpful. Assignments are sent via email with all the required information: due dates, the specific topic, word count, and proposed fee. You are given the opportunity to review the assignment before deciding to accept to ensure your comfort with the subject area. Any questions you may have are answered promptly. The level of intervention required varies, but I feel like they send you a good balance of heavy vs. light edits, that is, a good mix of copy vs. substantive edit. It is true that some assignments do take longer than others, but that is usually offset by another assignment that goes quicker than anticipated.

Handling the invoicing and pay is quite easy. A monthly invoice is all that is required. They will check it for you to make sure it is correct, and the following month your pay is sent out. I have even missed an assignment in my invoice and they corrected it for me resulting, in a larger pay, which speaks volumes about their professionalism and integrity.

As an academic researcher myself, the flexibility has been crucial. When I have been busy with my own impending grant and paper due dates, all that was required from me was a simple email to Enago stating my unavailability and it was taken care of. When I finished my grant, I emailed them back stating I was available and the assignments started coming in again.

In summary, I have been impressed with the professionalism of Enago. As a freelancer, I feel respected and an important member of the Enago team. The work is consistent, the pay is fair, and they respect your flexibility.

After working with Enago, I can honestly say that my first impression was correct and has even surpassed that. Although manuscript editing is not my primary work, the editor feedback system helps me a lot in improving and learning a new craft. The in-house editors and coordinators have been very professional and efficient in their communication. They have been considerate, flexible, and consistent in their interaction. Instructions on assignments are detailed and informative, and the topics have been interesting most of the time. Payment procedure is likewise–organized and timely.

Overall, I am lucky that I am a part of Enago. The experience has been enriching and dynamic and I look forward to more years of working with the team.

The assignments I am given are always on topics relevant to the fields I work in. I specialize in psychology and philosophy and have been lucky enough to edit assignments across diverse areas within these fields, ranging from ethics to phenomenology, and from personality psychology to cognitive neuroscience. I enjoy the breadth of assignments I receive and appreciate that they relate to areas of interest for my own research.

Excellent feedback mechanisms are in place to make sure that new editors learn as much as they need to know about Enago’s editing style. Every month editors receive a report detailing feedback on assignments completed during that month, and occasionally receive in-depth feedback on particular assignments (via an in-house editor completing a spot check on that assignment). I have found both sources of feedback invaluable; each time I learn about new aspects of the editing process to focus on and this improves my overall skill set as an editor.

Payments are always prompt and the monthly invoice amount is always double-checked by Enago staff. Editors keep their own invoices, but these are checked over by Enago when submitted each month, and errors are pointed out immediately.

I have found work to be very consistent since I started. I started my relationship with Enago by completing a few short assignments every week, and then begun taking on longer jobs. More recently, I moved on to completing substantive editing assignments in addition to copyediting ones. I receive about as much work as I am able to fit comfortably into my weekly schedule, which is fantastic. In addition, I have the flexibility of refusing assignments if I need to. For example, if I am working hard on a presentation, I can let the Enago editorial team know that I will be unavailable to take on assignments for a few days. In return, I try to return that same flexibility by being available to complete urgent assignments whenever possible.

All in all I have greatly enjoyed the journey of improving my editing skills through working with Enago and look forward to an ongoing professional relationship. The variety of assignments and flexibility of work is a great bonus of working for Enago, as is corresponding with the friendly editorial team who deliver and receive assignments. It is also very exciting to be involved in helping non-native English speakers publish first-rate research in internationally respected journals.

The Project Management team at Enago is always very helpful and informative, and they respond promptly to any sort of query either by phone or email. A monthly report provides me with feedback on many aspects of the previous month’s work, on an assignment-by-assignment basis. Of course, such reports are extremely valuable for my ability to review my work and to know about where I need to improve.

The invoicing procedure for Enago’s freelancers is simple and efficient. I upload my invoice for the previous month within the first five days of the following month, and the money is usually in my bank account via wire transfer shortly after. On an hourly basis, rates can vary quite a bit among assignments, but overall I am extremely happy with the current rates paid.

I really enjoy the work. Not only do I like the very process of editing, but I also enjoy the way Enago enables to keep up a perfect pace; I rarely feel overloaded with work, and on the other hand the Project Management see to it that I always have a bit of work on my plate. Even though I have a full-time job as a senior scientist, I enjoy doing a bit of editing in the evenings and sometimes during weekends. Editing makes me lose track of time and space. Working with Enago has certainly nurtured and expanded my interest in refining and improving scientific texts.

My first contact with Enago Occurred when the company provided me with the opportunity to edit some test documents and gave good feedback on the quality of the editing. Not having worked professionally as an editor before, I probably went through a longer initial period of assessment than one for an experienced editor, during which I received periodic feedback on the various manuscripts that I edited. All of this was helpful, and I would say that the interactions, even though always online, conveyed a sense of friendliness and encouragement, with the goal of getting a new editor to a point where the edited manuscripts met the company’s quality standards. This period gave me the opportunity to learn the work flow and adjust to the close deadlines that are part of the industry.

I fairly quickly began to receive more work in subject areas that I thought were appropriate for my background, and I can say that I have enjoyed the work routine and daily interactions with Enago staff. The primary interactions are with the Project Management Team (PM) members, who assign work and respond to any questions or issues that might arise. The PM members are friendly and helpful and generally respond quickly. Occasionally, quality issues arise either as a result of internal review of finished work or from clients. These situations are rare, but when they occur, I review the questions or issues raised and provide good responses with an eye toward critically evaluating my work to see if I should have done something different. I have found these types of interactions to be useful because it allows me to see how others might have revised something or to see things that I might have missed. I think the internal editors also learn from these interactions, so overall, a good two-way interaction is maintained when needed. Another regular type of interaction is through the monthly quality feedback reports that each editor receives. These reports give you a good sense of how you are performing in various subject and editing areas, with personal feedback provided by individual review editors on many of the jobs edited the previous month. Client feedback, when provided, is also recorded. The payment procedure has always worked smoothly. I upload my monthly invoice at the beginning of the next month and receive payment generally within the first 10 days of the next month. The payment and tax procedures have been streamlined and work well.

Fortunately, I have been able to work full time and am able to adjust my schedule to one that I am comfortable with. Assignments may be accepted or rejected depending on your own comfort level with the job or on your work schedule. I am generally able to take on as much work as I want, but there is some ebb and flow throughout the year. I now work under a full-time contract. This is a new system, but it has worked well so far. I like knowing that I can stay busy, work my own schedule, and expect to earn a known average monthly income. Overall, my experience with Enago has been very pleasant. The company has high standards, and I enjoy helping to turn average to poorly written manuscripts into well-written manuscripts suitable for publication in some of the best journals in the world. The variety of subjects within the subject areas that I cover provides constant interest. The personal interactions with Enago staff in various areas have always been extremely warm, professional, and encouraging. I enjoy being part of a company that has a well-established reputation for quality within the industry.

Payment has always been prompt, and with the opening of Enago’s U.S. office, no longer is discounted by wire-transfer fees, which I appreciate. Communication is by e-mail, sometimes by telephone in case of an urgent assignment request.

From what I can see, the company has a good business model and is executing it well. It’s a pleasure to be part of it. Last year, Enago introduced an annually renewable contract providing for a set minimum average monthly income to the freelancer and formalizing the freelance editor's obligations to the company with respect to confidentiality, noncompetition, quality compliance, etc.

You are free to accept or reject any assignment, and assignments are usually well-matched to your specified areas of expertise. Many of the papers that I receive come from world class research institutions and are very interesting. Recently, Enago has offered some freelancers the opportunity to work under contract whereby they guarantee a minimum monthly quota of work that you are obligated to complete. The minimum threshold is relatively low and offers surety of income. Contract terms are reasonable and flexible.

The quality of writing varies widely in a given month. Overtime the work and pay balances out to a reasonable amount, particularly considering that you do not have to solicit or manage clients. The work is dependable and payment is reliable. Enago provides a very straightforward invoice template. I have been particularly impressed by the people in the accounts department.

In fact, in my experience, all of the people you deal with at Enago are first rate  professional, unfailingly polite, and considerate.

Their attention to detail is legendary; their in-house editors double-check every document to ensure that no stray comma passes them by! They provide monthly performance reports which include an assessment of the editor’s work by the in-house team, as well as occasionally sending more detailed assessments of an individual assignment. This certainly helps to ensure that their editors do not become careless! It is also useful to know exactly what aspects need more care and attention.

So far I have worked on a range of documents and projects covering different subject areas but always taking account of my previous experience, which has made my workload interesting and varied. I feel that a good relationship has been established between myself and the editorial coordinators, and it feels very much like a team effort in delivering work that will meet (or even exceed) the client’s expectations. The time allowed for an assignment is variable but is generally a few days, making deadlines manageable. If work is required for an urgent deadline, the editorial coordinators always check first that the request can be accommodated, and in general, they try to allow as much time as possible for work to be completed.

I believe we have developed a mutually beneficial relationship and I hope this will continue in future!

My pay has always come in a timely manner. Communication with the payroll people is excellent. Their cross-checking system precludes errors. They are always ready to answer inquiries or provide information as needed.

Working electronically as a freelancer saves so much time and eliminates many of the difficulties of office life. Who would have thought even 10 years ago that so much could be done via email? But at the same time, the people at Enago do call from time to time on the telephone, to discuss work issues and special circumstances surrounding an assignment. I appreciate the opportunity to talk to them; it makes the whole experience of working for Enago seem more real, like putting a voice to the names at the bottom of my email messages.

I enjoy working for an international company, taking assignments written by people from all over the world, on a diverse range of topics. I can almost feel myself becoming more valuable as an editor as I research unfamiliar terms and push myself to meet deadlines. Enago’s feedback process has also helped me in this area as well. As a freelancer working for individual clients, I never took the time to do a comprehensive summary of all the subject areas I’d worked in over a given time period, or evaluated my performance at various aspects of the job. I am grateful to have this information on a monthly basis now, along with a reasonably steady workload and income.

Besides having high expectations of its editors, Enago has a very efficient two-way feedback system that enables editors to improve their editing skills while feeling a sense of team belonging. During the time I have worked for Enago, I have really appreciated their feedback and transparency. In fact, when I landed this job I felt like it was my dream job, working from home, doing what I have always loved doing (writing), even though the papers are not my own.

The danger for such far flung team members like myself is to feel detached and unsupervised, with little understanding of how to improve. Thus, I appreciate very much that Enago asks for feedback on our experience as freelance editors. The Enago Recruitment Coordinator has been very quick in her appreciation of my queries and feedback regarding my experience, suggestions, and desire to improve the quality of my editing. In response to my requests, in recent weeks, I have received very helpful, and sometimes painful, reminders that my work can be greatly improved. The Quality Assurance team does not miss any of our mistakes. I have also been impressed with the consistency in the number of assignments that Enago sends me each week. Although I can’t always anticipate the schedule of their arrival in my inbox, even with the variations, there is an overall consistency in the weekly volume of work.

Enago is extremely flexible in the amount of work they send to you, depending on your communication about what you are capable of doing each week. They also hold back on assignments when you give them advanced notice of your unavailability at certain times. So overall, you have the best of working worlds whereby you work from home as you like, turning the flow off and on as your schedule demands.

Yeah Enago!!

The monthly performance reports are much appreciated as they assist me to continuously improve my performance as an Editor. They also serve as a wonderful motivator, as positive feedback is always encouraging.

To date, payment from Enago has always been prompt. The procedures for submitting invoices are simple and the assistance offered by the Accounts & Finance team has always been helpful.

I found Enago to be extremely professional in every respect, from assignment allocation to feedback and payment, and queries are always dealt with promptly. The assignments are not always allotted from the chosen subject areas; however, in most cases, they are a close match. The editorial team generally tries to accommodate requests for deadline extensions, if feasible. The assignments are by-and-large reasonably written although there are exceptions. The monthly feedback received from Enago is very useful in conveying how closely the work from the previous month matches expectations, and provides pointers on how to further improve your edit quality. Eventually, I entered into a full-time contract with Enago, and while enjoying the same flexibility of schedule or leave, I like the consistent work load that I now get.

The invoice procedure followed by Enago is simple and efficient. Enago is very punctual with payments, and I have not faced any discrepancy of any kind with the same.

Overall, my experience with Enago has been very positive, and I look forward to many more years of association with the company.
