We recently received this email, offering writing work for students, paid at market rates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“My name is Tom Parling and I am an alumni of the University Business School \u2013 having graduated in 2009. Since then I have established a successful International company (www.ocere.com), based out of Cheltenham delivering content and online marketing services to a global client base. To see more: I think I\u2019m still featured on the International Business course page – https:\/\/www.glos.ac.uk\/courses\/undergraduate\/ibg\/pages\/international-business-management-ba-hons.aspx The reason for my contact is: I currently have demand for writing students who are looking for some extra work alongside their studies. We write a lot of content, across a range of client topics \u2013 and have growing demand. This is a great opportunity to gain some practical writing experiences within a commercial setting. I am very keen to receive CVs\/covering letters or interest from students to either my email: tom@ocere.com or phone: 01242 534031 \u2013 we can be very flexible around studies and it is a great way to build experience. To be clear it is paid work, at a credible market rate. “<\/p>\n\n\n\n
