Asynchronous Peer Writing Specialists should be model students with a growth mindset and a strong desire to help their peers. While we can help you fine‑tune specific skills for the job, a working knowledge of the writing process and how to identify and communicate constructive feedback to students is needed.

As the work is fully remote and primarily asynchronous, individuals should demonstrate strong self‑management and leadership skills, including the ability to independently manage an approved work schedule, complete responsibilities in a timely manner, and communicate proactively with supervisors regarding any questions or concerns.
