I am ultra-careful when recruiting PGPR team members \u2013 after all, our reputation relies on their excellence. Most of our clients are working in the field of qualitative psychology. As such, I ask experts in that field for recommendations of people who might want to work for me, and then I follow those recommendations up. All potential team members complete a series of tests before being interviewed, meaning I am satisfied that their work is excellent and their values align with those of the company; those values being honesty, efficiency and kindness, in case you were wondering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Every member of the PGPR team is an expert in their field. Some are expert proof-readers with years\u2019 experience on a multitude of texts. Others are experts in qualitative methods, with PhDs of their own. Some teach at universities. Others were taught by Jonathan A Smith, who devised IPA, the method so many of my clients use. <\/p>\n\n\n\n We will always ensure that our clients are matched to the team member\nwho best aligns with their needs. Are you looking for a super speedy and\naccurate proof-read, but don\u2019t need any feedback? Then Hannah or Rosy are your\nwomen! Need feedback on your qualitative work, but feel confident your English\nis strong? We\u2019ll pass you on to Fiona or Lydia. If you need proofing and\nfeedback, then Rachel, Astrid or Elly will be perfect for your project. Between\nus, we have expertise in a range of qualitative methods, so we\u2019ll ensure that\nyour proof-reader\u2019s skills fit with your research. <\/p>\n\n\n\n When I started PGPR in 2018, I had no idea it was going to be so popular. I quickly found myself with a waiting list more than four months long, which was no use for stressed-out students working on a deadline. Expanding the team has meant that we can offer much tighter turnarounds, which is good news for everyone. There are times when it\u2019s useful for a client to work with more than one proof-reader. For example, they might have a huge thesis with a turnaround time which is just too tight for one person to complete. If so, we can put several proof-readers on the case for you. Or a client\u2019s supervisor might be giving feedback which conflicts with ours. When that happens, we can ask for a third opinion from another member of the PGPR team. <\/p>\n\n\n\n I hope this blog has calmed any concerns you might have had about\nworking with my team. Of course, if you have any more questions, please do get\nin touch on info@postgradproofreader.co.uk and we will happily answer those\nqueries for you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n To book a slot with one of PGPR\u2019s excellent team, visit\nwww.postgradproofreader.co.uk <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"http:\/\/postgradproofreader.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/tim-marshall-cAtzHUz7Z8g-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\")
