- Ensure accuracy by self-checking your work.
- Attend weekly meetings to apprise the Zaner-Bloser team of your progress, and to discuss questions or issues.
- Following the period of data entry will be a period of checking and testing. After review, the freelancer will receive a fix list from the Zaner-Bloser team and be required to make changes to the data as necessary.
- Attend paid training on project data entry processes. Understand where the data is coming from and how it needs to be interpreted and formatted in spreadsheets.
Skills required:
- 5+ years of experience in data entry via Excel or Google Sheets
- Experience with spreadsheet formulas
- General computer literacy: able to navigate the various sites that the data originates from
- Ability to understand the link between the data/formatting and how it will ultimately appear on the website.
- Attention to detail, rigorous self-checking skills, and the ability to adapt to needed format changes should they occur.
