PowerPoint Professional (Windows) - Remote Contract
Listing checked September 13, 2026 · pay as published by Mercor
Overview
Mercor wants professionals who use specialized applications in real work, not lab exercises. You need PowerPoint already installed on your own Windows PC and ready to open on day one. The company does not supply licenses, virtual machines, or hardware. Work centers on presentation design, slide masters, and animation, the kind of tasks common to consultants, analysts, marketers, and corporate or sales teams. You also need a screen setup that captures screenshots above 2.5 megapixels, either through one high-resolution monitor or two displays combined into a single spanned image.
What You'll Do5
- 1Use PowerPoint on a Windows PC to create and revise presentation decks.
- 2Configure slide masters to set layouts, themes, and reusable templates.
- 3Add animation and transitions to slides based on project instructions.
- 4Capture screenshots from your monitor setup at a resolution above 2.5 megapixels.
- 5Keep required applications installed and ready to open for each work session.
Requirements6
- 1Proven use of PowerPoint for presentation design, slide masters, and animation.
- 2Own a Windows computer with PowerPoint installed and ready to open now.
- 3Supply your own software license and hardware; Mercor provides none.
- 4Capture screenshots from a display that exceeds 2.5 megapixels.
- 5Meet one monitor path: a single high-res screen (QHD, 4K, 5K, or listed equivalent) or two 1920x1080+ displays in a spanned setup.
- 6Work background as a consultant, analyst, marketer, corporate staffer, or sales professional.
Who Should Apply
The right candidate already works in PowerPoint on a Windows machine and can show real presentation design, slide master, and animation work. You keep a high-resolution screen or dual-monitor setup that meets the screenshot threshold without borrowing equipment. Consultants, analysts, marketers, and sales or corporate professionals fit well because the source domain matches those roles. This role is less suitable if you use a Mac, rely on a single 1080p display, or need Mercor to supply software or hardware. Applicants often lose fit score when they cannot confirm PowerPoint opens today, cannot state their monitor resolution, or show no hands-on slide master or animation examples.
Salary Insight
The source lists $60.00 to $70.00 per hour. Because this is an hourly engagement, your total pay tracks approved hours, not a fixed salary. The rate fits a professional who already owns a Windows PC, PowerPoint, and a qualifying high-resolution display, since Mercor does not cover licenses or hardware.
