  • Feb 2015 - Dec 2015

  My main responsibility was to help prepare research reports for print and online publication to support EU policy makers in their work on gender equality. I proofread and edited reports for sense, style, structure, grammar, punctuation, spelling and consistency. I also ensured all material conformed to the EU's inter-institutional style guide. I proofread and edited on-screen using track changes in MS Word during the initial stages of editing, and I marked up final PDF versions for changes using Adobe comment tools during the final stages of production. For online publications, I verified all hyperlinks and provided replacement URLs where necessary. Show less
