Philippines staffing guide
Set an article correction window for virtual assistant publishing
Define how post-review fixes are received, verified, versioned, and returned for release without losing accountability.
Key takeaways
- Group feedback into one controlled pass.
- Verify material fixes against evidence.
- Freeze the accepted release version.
Open one correction cycle
The editor returns a consolidated list tied to headings or quoted passages. The assistant acknowledges the list and flags any instruction that conflicts with the brief or source record before editing begins.
Classify the requested changes
Separate factual corrections, structural revisions, voice edits, metadata changes, and optional suggestions. The classification tells the assistant which checks must be repeated after the change.
Recheck affected evidence
A factual rewrite requires another source comparison, while a moved section requires a flow and link check. Do not assume that accepting tracked changes proves the revised claim remains accurate in context.
Freeze and identify the release copy
After acceptance, record the version, approver, time, intended slug, and publication date. Further edits reopen the appropriate check rather than silently changing a file already cleared for release.
Questions for the hiring call
"I want help with these tasks first: [tasks]. Here are examples of good work. Here is what you should send back for approval. Can you show me how you would handle the first three items?"
Use this on a call with a Philippines staffing provider or Filipino freelancer. It keeps the discussion on the work instead of broad promises.
FAQ
How many correction rounds should be allowed?
Use as many as accuracy requires, while treating repeated avoidable rounds as evidence that the brief or review process needs repair.
Can copy edits happen after approval?
Only under a defined rule; any edit that could change meaning should reopen review.
