Summary

We’re a U.S. mortgage brokerage looking for a native U.S. English copy editor to review social media content for seven different loan officers. We publish educational posts on Instagram and LinkedIn twice a week for each loan officer. The main goal is to make sure the writing sounds like a real person, not AI, not overly polished, and not like all seven loan officers were written by the same person. What you’ll review * 14 posts per review cycle * Captions of approximately 150 words each * Short text used directly on the graphics For each post, we need you to: * Tell us if it sounds natural or AI-generated * Flag awkward, generic, overly polished, or unnatural wording * Tell us if it feels trustworthy * Identify whether each loan officer has a distinct voice * Tell us which posts would make you stop scrolling and which you would skip * Rewrite the copy when needed We do not need mortgage or real estate expertise. We specifically want a native U.S. English speaker who can react like a normal American reader and tell us: “A real person would say this differently.” Deliverable For each post: 1. Brief comments 2. Problems you noticed 3. Revised copy when needed 4. Overall human/naturalness assessment If the fit is good, this can become recurring work every week.
