Does anyone no what a recruiter might mean when the posted content for a Proofreader job includes a bolded “send proofreading test…” when emailing a resume directly? (No test or link provided in post.) I wasn’t sure if this is a common thing that is downloaded or pulled from the job-seeking app, etc. Thanks.

I did some freelance copywriting and such a few years ago, and ran into somebody who wanted a sample of proofreading. What I did was have the original document and then my edited one, with the highlights. I’m not sure if that is what everyone is looking for, so might be worthwhile to ask for specifics.

Does it mean they got another candidate for same job?
If they get back to me, how much should I ask?

How do you feel about leaving a company shortly after joining?

I've been told by people to not be loyal to companies & I've seen posts in forums where people have talked about leaving workplace 1, at workplace 2 for like 3 weeks, and already interviewing for workplace 3 (and the recruiter for workplace 3 doesn't even know that the person has left workplace 1). That feels a little disingenuous and...bad etiquette maybe? What do you think?
