The Qualifications of Our Writers

PowerPapers bases its hiring policy upon several criteria, which means that you can have peace of mind:

1. All writers possess at least one advanced degree.

The ability to earn an advanced degree not only speaks of proficiency in a particular discipline, but to the ability to write a thesis or dissertation, or equivalent projects like a series of KAMs or capstone project). We only hire those writers who have this ability, because it means they have the necessary experience and they possess extraordinary research skills. Our clients want to know that their writers have proven themselves in academia, and we make sure they have.

2. All writers are native English speakers who reside in the US, the UK, or Canada.

This is a must when it comes to writing papers for colleges and universities that are English-speaking. Even the most sophisticated of English-language learners write will use phrasing, unusual words, or have other grammatical markers that set them apart from native speakers. We know that your model papers must be free of such markers, and so we only hire native English speakers.

3. All writers have at least two or more years of professional writing experience.

It isn't enough to know an academic field. Plenty of people are smart but they cannot write about what they know. We insist that our writers have already worked in this business, as professional writers, producing term papers, research papers, theses, dissertations, and other written materials. This is an incredibly demanding profession, and we need to know that our writers can handle its challenges. The more experience our writers have, the more they are able to help with rush jobs. To be a good writer and brilliant in one's field isn't enough. They also need experience to be able to pull off the occasional dissertation in a mere week or two. While no one can do that routinely, many of our writers can in fact produce at that level, so don't be afraid to ask if you're up against a deadline!

4. All writers are able to write in more than one discipline.

We need to know that our writers can research and write about a wide variety of topics and in several different fields, not just one or two. Sure, it's one thing to be able to whip off an English essay or two, but can the writer switch gears and write an appropriate response to an aviation-related simulation? The importance of being able to write intelligently in several different disciplines is not only the mark of a superb professional writer, but it also makes it possible for clients to work with the same writer in many different classes, thus providing them with models that have the same overall style.
