Overview
Mercor needs professionals who use Word on macOS for long-form document work. You must have your own Mac with Word installed and be able to open the app on the day you apply. The company does not supply licenses, virtual machines, or hardware. Your display setup also matters: screenshots must exceed 2.5 megapixels, either from one high-resolution monitor or from two monitors captured as a single spanning image. Work centers on document authoring, styles, referencing, and review for legal, policy, consulting, administrative, or technical writing needs.
What You'll Do6
- Author and edit long-form documents in Word on macOS.
- Apply styles, manage references, and run review cycles on drafts.
- Produce screenshots above 2.5 megapixels with your own approved display setup.
- Support legal, policy, consulting, administrative, or technical writing projects.
- Keep document formatting and version history in order.
- Track time for a per-hour engagement.
Requirements6
- Own a Mac running macOS with Microsoft Word installed and ready to open today.
- Have real experience with long-form document authoring, styles, referencing, and review.
- Capture screenshots above 2.5 megapixels using a single qualified monitor or a dual-monitor spanning setup.
- Work with legal, policy, consulting, administrative, or technical writing material.
- Provide your own hardware, software license, and display equipment.
- Meet one of the listed resolutions for a single display or use two 1920x1080+ monitors.
Who Should Apply
The right candidate works with Word on a Mac every week, handles long-form documents such as legal briefs, policy manuals, consulting reports, or technical guides, and can prove a display setup that meets the screenshot rule. You should own your Mac, have Word installed, and know how to use styles and references without support. Candidates who use Windows, lack a current Word license, or need a provided virtual machine will not fit this contract. A common reason for rejection is a display that captures less than 2.5 megapixels, such as a single 1080p screen used alone or as one half of a dual setup. Another low-fit signal is broad admin work without deep Word authoring, referencing, or review experience.
Salary Insight
Pay runs from $60.00 to $70.00 per hour. For remote application specialist work tied to Microsoft Word on macOS, this range sits above basic document editing and matches a professional who brings domain knowledge in legal, policy, consulting, or technical authoring.
