career services

Elite Research's editors want to see their clients succeed and accomplish everything they want to in their careers. We have helped many potential candidates with the many pieces of job applications, including job descriptions, resumes, and cover letters. For each of these types of documents, our services vary from editing, proofreading, and formatting to reviewing content and visualizing data.

Document Type

Resumes

Developing and writing resumes can be a tough job because of the amount of directions they can take. For example, some industries desire more creative resumes with image and graphic pieces, and others maintain standards of traditional applications. Contact Elite, and we will be happy to support you and your resume needs.

Cover Letters

In addition to resumes, another intimidating part of job applications is writing cover letters. These are the first documents that employers use to assess your skills as a professional, and they should be impressive and well written. Let Elite's editors ensure that you have everything you need to make a great first impression towards your dream position.

Service Type

Content Review

Content review is one of the major editing services we provide; there are two separate kinds of content review that you can request. The first is the statistical content review, in which a statistician can provide a thorough review of the project design, methodology, and statistical/analysis plan. The second kind is the editorial content review, in which our editors read documents to make suggestions about elaborating, explaining, changing, reordering, or reducing content. Both statisticians and editors ensure that only necessary and valuable information that qualifies as intellectual, academic content is included in the final document.

In-Depth Line-by-Line Edit

For this service, editors read text line by line for specific, complex issues related to grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Editors look for various editing issues, including, but not limited to, acronym consistency, tense, passive voice, anthropomorphism, subject/verb agreement, single/double quotation marks, brackets, proper use of periods, back-to-back parentheses, etc. Let us know if the specialized editing service of in-depth line-by-line will meet your needs for your document.

Basic Copy Edit

In this level of editing, editors provide a basic overview of text for glaring errors in tense, first/third person, subject/verb agreement, and clarity issues, consistencies in spelling, proper use of periods, ellipses, commas, colons/semicolons, etc. This would be a great choice if you've already been through the document (or had others run through your document) a few times and would just like a fresh pair of eyes on it.

Proofreading

During proofreading, which should be the last step completed in a document, editors compare a final document version (or proof) to a working version to correct unintentional minor errors created during editing or printing before final printing and binding occur. If you are worried about small formatting or printing issues before binding or submitting, let us know.

Document Formatting

Our editors have experience working with university and style guidelines from around the globe. In this editing phase, editors determine the level of formatting needed for your project (i.e., in-depth formatting, basic formatting, or minimal formatting). Formatting tasks include, but are not limited to preliminary pages, font, heading styles, margins, page numbers, spacing, tables, figures, references, etc., based on university and style guidelines (APA, AMA, MLA, Chicago, etc.).

Data Visualization

Many industries are beginning to visualize and even digitalize their job applications. Fields, such as the fine arts and website management, appreciate resumes and cover letters that are more in tune with applicants' creative tendencies. We welcome job-search projects that contain data visualization; let us know how we can help.

Document Preparation

document preparation

Elite Research's editors know that many moving pieces are involved in preparing documents for any industry, from the hospitals and medical entities, to corporate and industry specific, and non-profit organizations. We offer services for many different types of documents, including reports, white paper documents, and grants. Additionally, our services for each type of document can vary according to your needs: Microsoft Word support, editing, formatting, and guideline requirements.

Document Type

Academic Documents

Academic institutions require a number of different guidelines to be applied to document submissions, including tone, formatting, fact checking, readability, and presentation. Students and faculty of every expertise are involved in projects, such as essays, case studies, dissertations, prospectuses, reports, theses, and more. Our editors can help both faculty and students create excellent academic documents.

Journal Manuscripts

Document preparation is crucial for journal manuscripts. Each discipline follows a style guide, and each journal has its own strict submission guidelines. Journal reviewers are detail oriented, and manuscripts need to be similarly formatted. Our editors provide detailed reviews, edits, and support for journal manuscripts from inception to submission.

Grants

Grants are very specific types of documents that require detail-oriented reviewers and editors. Elite's editors can provide document flow, tone, audience, formatting requirements, and more for your grant. If you are working on a grant or preparing to work on one, call Elite, and we will be happy to partner with you through the process.

Many industries require technical reports of all shapes and sizes, and our editors have seen them all. Whether you have requirements to apply or do not have specific guidelines, we can make sure all your needs are met within your project. Let us know how we can provide services in reviewing, editing, proofreading, or any other kind of technical support.

An interesting service we provide for documents with reference lists and in-text citations is an in-text citation check. To conduct this service, we confirm that all sources that are cited in the text are listed in the reference section and that all in-text citations are formatted correctly. If you need assistance with citation checks, give us a call.

In-Text Citation Formatting

We also provide in-text formatting for documents with in-text citations. For this service, our editors confirm correct formatting by correcting spellings of authors’ names, formatting punctuation in narrative and parenthetical citations, reviewing use of et al. throughout the document, alphabetizing parenthetical citation lists, and checking usage of and or & in narrative and parenthetical citations.

Reference Formatting

Our editors ensure that your references are formatted in the reference list according to style guidelines by updating DOIs and URLs, updating source information wherever necessary, and checking that all spelling and punctuation is correct. If you are struggling with formatting your reference list according to style guides, our editors will aid you through the process.

Indexing

Indexing and creating glossaries is an important part of textbooks, manuals, books, publications, and other technical documents. In our indexing services, the editors ensure that all intellectual content from the text is included in any glossaries or indexes for your project. We thrive on organizing information and utilize a systematic process to identify the important concepts for the index. Ask about our indexing services.

Transcriptions

If your business or personal project requires transcriptions, our editors also provide this service. Our highly customized packages allow us to give you the choice of which type of transcription--verbatim or a general synopsis of topics--your project requires. Contact us for more information about our transcription services.

Table Creation

Tables and charts are helpful visual aids in many projects and provide a visual break from large text pieces. Elite's editors can ensure style guidelines or consistency are applied to tables and figures. Let us know how we can best serve you and your table-making needs.

Data Visualization

Data visualization is an important part of business and industry documents because they can reach audiences easier than text can. Elite's editors make PowerPoint presentations, tables, figures, and other graphics to assist clients who want to be remembered by their readers. Contact us about helping you with visualization pieces.

Guideline Requirements

To be accepted for publications and grants, submissions must have great organization, formatting, and flow, and they MUST follow every guideline. Our editors study the guidelines provided and ensure that manuscripts and grant proposals follow them. If you are struggling with guidelines or have been stalling to submit, give us a call, and we'll work through them for you.

Style Guide Services

Similar to interpreting guidelines for manuscripts and grants, style guides can also add headache to a project. Our editors are proficient in APA, AMA, Chicago, Turabian, MLA, and Bluebook. Let us know how we can assist you in handling style guide requirements.

See what our clients are saying about the services they've received!

I wholeheartedly recommend Elite Research for any student requiring editing and statistical analysis. I failed to follow the recommendations of instructors and peers by not consulting with a statistician during my project proposal phase. As a result, I was behind schedule and my research questions were not as refined as they could have been. I contacted Elite in a panic, on the recommendation of a colleague, and was immediately put at ease by [my statistical consultant]. She assured me that we would be able to complete my statistical analysis in time to present my project to my committee, and that I had not done irreparable damage to my project. I explained to her that I was a very poor statistics student, but she had me ready to defend my project with an understanding of the statistics as they applied to my project. I feel very strongly that [my statistician] was a part of my team, helping me to prepare a successful project and defense, and allowing me to graduate on time. [The billing department] always was available to answer any question I had about my estimates and bills. The fact that they provided such detailed estimates which which were very accurate was also reassuring. I highly recommend Elite Research for any student requiring assistance in completing their projects.

I want to express my deep appreciation to the competent and excellent job you are doing as high-level research team. The success of my PhD dissertation is possible because of the distinguished technical ability of your consultants who advised me appropriately on dissertation details. When I first came to EliteResearch, I was skeptical that such a business might not be ableto address PhD research modalities; your statistical consultants proved to me that they are trulypart of an elite research organization. I decided to continue to consult with you because your team actuallyknows what they are doing, with no time wasted and no games played. I can say with confidence to others that if you want robust academic research consulting, I would not hesitate doing business with Elite Research. They helped me with research design, survey review, statistical analysis, creating tables from data, editing and proofreading, and preparing for my dissertation defense. Lastly, I would also say that if you mean business, consulting Elite Research is worth the cost. Thanks!

The staff at Elite Research is top-notch! They reviewed my external dissertation grant. The staff provided timely edits. I made the grant deadline well in advance. Very importantly, I got the dissertation grant!

I would not have been able to complete my doctoral dissertation without the help, advice, and expertise of the entire Elite Research staff. After more than eight years of procrastination, I had almost given up on my academic dream. Specifically, [my Elite Research consultant]was instrumental in helping me break down my project into manageable pieces. She is a person determined to help all of her clients; she kept me on task! I felt her genuine concern throughout my writing process, and believe that she treats each job as a unique opportunity. [My consultant] is definitely passionate about her work and her clients. Additionally, her expertise in statistics was invaluable! I believe that Elite Research is truly unique because they offer expertise and assistance from the beginning of a project right through the end of a project. The editing services offered through Elite Research were outstanding! I cannot thank [my consultant] and the entire staff at Elite Research enough for helping me to reach my goal.

My project paper looks fabulous! It reminds me of a seminar that I recently attended on customer service. They gave us examples of what employees do when they do great work versus what employees do who cause the Wow Factor in delivery of services to clients/customers. The Elite Research Team caused the Wow Factor in the quality and delivery of the documents for my Capstone Project Study, in an exemplary fashion! Please give a special thanks to the editors. Thanks a lot!
Ruby Taylor MSN, WHNP-BC

 

The services provided by the professionals at Elite Research is exemplary. The feedback I have received from the editorial service team is extremely helpful. When I first contacted the company I was only looking for help with my manuscripts. However, over the summer break I had been working countless hours on an application for a scholar program and I decided to send it to Elite Research for editorial services. I know I made the right choice in seeking their assistance. The revisions I made to my application based on editorial comments proved to be the best investment I made this summer. I recently received an email indicating I had been one of three scholars choosed. I highly recommend these services to anyone who is committed to scholarly work.

I would like to thank [my statistical consultants] and the team at Elite Research for their excellent advice and consulting while I was working on my prospectus and on my dissertation. The editing services and their knowledge of statistical analysis are excellent. I was really impressed with the fact that any questions I had were answered promptly. Collecting data using the online web survey for computer analysis was a great approach for my quantitative research. I recommend Elite Research to anyone who has questions and needs expert advice because they are just a phone call away.

I had spent 12 months trying to construct and format Chapters 1-3 of my dissertation according to APA 6 with very little success. I had been through several revisions with the writing center at my university, which, as you may know, can be a very time-consuming process because university writing centers have an inordinate amount of students to assist. After three revisions that took 3 months to complete, I determined that in order for me to complete this paper, I was going to need the assistance of an editing company that could turn around my corrections quicker and make more thorough suggestions. Within 14 days of working with my Elite Research consultant, the following occurred:
  • My Chapter 2 Literature Review was in pristine condition.
  • My Chapter 3 research questions, methods, and instruments for my mixed methods study had been worded by a statistician to a level of perfection that I would have been unable to achieve on my own.
  • The qualitative phase of my research had been sent to one of Elite's qualitative research specialists, who reviewed my focus group questions and administrator interview questions and essentially guided me through the qualitative interview questions to include, as well as the strategies to use for gaining the maximum amount of information from interview questions.
  • My chapters will be worked into the university template from purgatory.
  • My proposal started coming together, and I will be able to stand in front of my committee with confidence.
E-mails I have sent to my consultant during the week have typically been answered within 6 hours. I even requested that my consultant help me stay focused by making me accountable via frequent progress reports that I would send to him. He also sets timelines for me to complete edits and makes suggestions about what I should be working on next. He is a positive influence in this very difficult and stressful endeavor and is aware of my unique learning style, so he complies with the strategies I need to be successful. The billing department developed a plan for payment and has adjusted that plan as my situation changes. The billing department and my consultant always notify me prior to any charges to my account, and they provide an itemized record of what each service entails and the cost of those services. Elite is much more than an editing service; I believe they care about the people they are assisting because it shows. Elite's team will take what you have written and make suggestions on how to develop and expand your thoughts and ideas. They also have a full range of experts, and you can customize the amount of support you need to successfully complete your writing project. Please, if you are like me and find writing tasks of this magnitude particularly difficult, investigate the services offered by Elite. This is a company with an enormous amount of integrity and professionalism.

I was hopelessly looking for assistance with my dissertation after having a bad experience with another company (they were unreliable and unprofessional) I interviewed a number of businesses where both an editor and statistician were offered and found Elite Research. The statistician and editor I worked with were both amazing. They were experts in their craft as well as supportive throughout the process. They were both fast to respond to questions and upfront about costs. I very much wish I found them sooner as they are great with deadlines and checking in with me about my own deadlines. Lastly, I will be defending my dissertation research with the help of my statistician who will ensure I am prepared to explain all my data. This is a one-stop shop. I highly recommend Elite Research for anyone working on his or her dissertation.

Dissertation Services

dissertation services

Elite Research's editors strive to see students succeed and reach their academic goals of earning their Master's and Doctorate degrees. Below, you will find our editing services provided by our expert technical writers and editors, including translating style and university guidelines; reviewing documents for content; editing documents for grammar, spelling, and punctuation; and formatting documents to clients' specifications.

Content Review

Content review is one of the major editing services we provide; there are two separate kinds of content review that you can request. The first is the statistical content review, in which a statistician can provide a thorough review of the project design, methodology, and statistical/analysis plan. The second kind is the editorial content review, in which our editors read documents to make suggestions about elaborating, explaining, changing, reordering, or reducing content. Both statisticians and editors ensure that only necessary and valuable information that qualifies as intellectual, academic content is included in the final document.

In-Text Citation Checks

One of the biggest challenges for many dissertation or thesis clients is sources. Every in-text citation must correspond to an entry in the reference list and vice versa. To ensure that all your sources are included in the text of your document and reference list, our editors can conduct an in-text citation check. This process helps relieve the stress that can accompany such a tedious step.

In-Text Citation Formatting

After performing the in-text citation check, the next step is in-text formatting. Our editors confirm correct formatting in the in-text citations by checking for spellings of authors’ names, punctuation in narrative and parenthetical citations, use of et al. throughout the document, alphabetization of parenthetical citation lists, and usage of and or & in narrative and parenthetical citations.

Reference Formatting

Formatting references can be tricky. Different universities and different fields of study require different formatting for the reference list, and references must match dicipline style guidelines so authors can be appropriately credited. Our editors are knowledgeable in APA, AMA, Chicago, Turabian, MLA, and other style guides, so they can help you with whatever is required by your field and institution. Our editors also look each reference up online to confirm that your sources can be found by other researchers.

In-Depth Line-by-Line Edit

For this service, editors read text line by line for specific, complex issues related to grammar, spelling, and punctuation. Editors look for various editing issues, including, but not limited to, acronym consistency, tense, passive voice, anthropomorphism, subject/verb agreement, single/double quotation marks, brackets, proper use of periods, back-to-back parentheses, etc. Let us know if the specialized editing service of in-depth line-by-line will meet your needs for your document.

Basic Copy Edit

In this level of editing, editors provide a basic overview of text for glaring errors in tense, first/third person, subject/verb agreement, and clarity issues, consistencies in spelling, proper use of periods, ellipses, commas, colons/semicolons, etc. This would be a great choice if you've already been through the document (or had others run through your document) a few times and would just like a fresh pair of eyes on it.

Proofreading

During proofreading, which should be the last step completed in a document, editors compare a final document version (or proof) to a working version to correct unintentional minor errors created during editing or printing before final printing and binding occur. If you are worried about small formatting or printing issues before binding or submitting, let us know.

Document Formatting

Our editors have experience working with university and style guidelines from around the globe. In this editing phase, editors determine the level of formatting needed for your project (i.e., in-depth formatting, basic formatting, or minimal formatting). Formatting tasks include, but are not limited to preliminary pages, font, heading styles, margins, page numbers, spacing, tables, figures, references, etc., based on university and style guidelines (APA, AMA, MLA, Chicago, etc.).

Table and Figure Creation

Tables and figures are also subject to university and style guidelines. Our editors are experienced in making tables and figures in Microsoft Word and Excel, making sure that your tables and figures follow the appropriate guidelines. Our editors can also create graphics with your data.

Transcriptions

Research often involves recording conversations in interviews, focus groups, or other data collection settings. At Elite Research, we have the necessary equipment and software to transcribe your audio data into a color-coded script.

Proposal Development

The development process for dissertation and thesis proposals can be daunting: planning out your entire project and collecting mountains of research for the literature review. Whether you are brainstorming before beginning your proposal, or you are ready to wrap up your proposal for submission, our editors can help you develop your document, including flow, logic, cohesion, readability, and grammar mistakes.

Data Visualization

Our editors understand and welcome the changes occurring in data presentation techniques. Graphically and aesthetically visualizing data has become a crucial part of displaying intellectual content, and many of our clients understand this as well. We can help with visualizing the data for your dissertation or thesis.

Style Guide Services

Dissertations and theses must follow certain guidelines provided by a discipline-specific style guide, such as APA, AMA, Chicago, Turabian, MLA, and Bluebook. However, style guides are expensive and dense. Our editors are experienced in these and other style guides and encourage students who need expert assistance to contact us.
