Full-time work is preferred; however, my department is being outsourced in mid-October, so as the time draws nearer I'd be willing to consider part-time position. I'm specifically looking for admin, communications, or editorial/publishing work (this includes freelance proofreading or copy-editing jobs) - I'd love to get into publishing or do something with a creative bent to it, but this is an ideal, not a requirement. I have a BA in linguistics with a minor in English; I'm detail-oriented, organized, and analytical. I'm a great communicator. I'm currently in customer service (phones and e-mail coverage), so I've got the phone voice and the people skills for any kind of administrative assistant or receptionist position. I have past admin and extensive proofreading experience. I find mistakes that our Communications Department missed...usually after the material went to print.
I'm a quick learner and hard worker: I may not know a certain program or job function, but it'll be worth your time if you're willing to teach me, because I'll pick it up fast. I'd be happy to provide a resume to anyone who's interested.
