New Employee Orientation Manual

by Tom Ersin 3/15/10 [14,000+ words]

Clients and Employers:

Concise, clear writing and fastidious editing are skills I bring to producing all manner of printed communication. The trend in written expression is away from legalese and the rhetorical flourishes of a five-term senator. Readers want effectively conveyed information--easy to read and comprehend. I'm also knowledgeable about Internet-age communication channels including social networking, blogging, e-mail campaigns, and Webmastering.

Born and raised in the Greater Detroit Area and a life-long student of writing, I have four (4) years experience as Writer / Copywriter / Editor (including research and light Web design) of an online magazine. It features academic and general interest pieces, technical manuals, current events articles, and satirical commentary. My magazine experience and Bachelor of Science Degree in Communications demonstrate:

superior English language writing, editing, speaking skills
knowledge of Internet-age communication / social media
research expertise
critically thoughtful and effective communication / problem-solving
computer and software maintenance expertise
respect for deadlines
project completion above expectations

I also have six (6) years background in counseling, hospital, and administrative settings, in addition to four (4) years as an office manager / computer tech. With an interest and knowledge of current events and cultural issues, my research skills and eclectic interests enable me to write on almost any topic.

Regards,

Tom Ersin
