‘I worked with Annie for eight months in 2008 during her time as a contractor with aspect. Annie was a pleasure to work with. She came on board during a period of high demand; as such, she quickly became a critical member of the team. Annie performed a variety of tasks, including report writing, creating original report templates, proofing, editing, reference checking and more.

Annie wrote numerous psychological assessment reports, based on the analyses of personality questionnaires and ability tests. Annie is highly skilled at interpreting psychometric information and linking that information to relevant competencies for a range of job roles, as well as highlighting areas of potential strength and development for a range of candidates. Her writing skills are exemplary, and she is highly skilled in her use of the English language. Annie’s communication style is succinct, clear and engaging. In addition, she produced numerous templates for our firm and helped streamline our processes.

In the period that Annie worked with aspect she made a significant and highly positive impact on the business, which we are still deriving the benefits of today.’

‘I am a student of the Southern Cross University, finishing a Graduate Diploma in Clinical Science (Perioperative Nurse Surgeon’s Assistant). Most of the coursework entails lengthy assignments. I started making use of Ascension Editing halfway through my course and received instant results. The marks for work edited by Ascension Editing improved by 10-20% and finally I received high distinctions for my work! I recommend the fast, accurate and professional service provided by Ascension Editing. Some of the assignments were quite complex, involving medical terminology which was edited with no difficulty by Ascension Editing. I really recommend this service to each and every student writing assignments. The results are unbelievable, for a very reasonable fee.’
