Of course, editing services are also sought out in order to proofread and refine any written work before it is given to the public. If one has what it takes to write and edit, then he or she should check out some of these career fields.

Now, one of the most difficult fields to get into would be the field of academic editing. If one will become an academic editor, he will be proofreading all kinds of academic works like dissertations are research papers. However, one must have all the necessary credentials in his chosen field of study before he becomes an editor for a particular academic subject.

Aside from that, one may also be a marketing content editor. This job, unlike the previous, does not need all those credentials as a marketing content editor will only be handling promotional content. Nowadays, this type of job is quite in demand since the demand for a good marketing team is higher than it used to be.

One may also go into the field of editorial journalism wherein he or she will be editing anything media related. He or she could edit the articles that are to be posted in a magazine or a newspaper. Anything that is to be published in print media have to go through these editors first for proofreading and checking.

Probably one of the most exciting editing jobs would be a novel editor which is an editor that would edit the works of authors like books or novels. Now, in order to land this kind of job, one has to be a well known writer first because proofreading a book is definitely not easy. One may work in a publishing company first in order to work on some of the materials of authors.

Of course, one can also have the opportunity of being a freelance editor who can edit almost anything. Due to the internet being a hub for freelancers everywhere, editors may also get the chance to market their services to various clients. Businesses would often want to outsource editors as this is cheaper than hiring an in house one.

Finally, there is also the opportunity to become a script editor, which is a more artsy job as compared to the rest. A script editor edits scripts of stage plays, films, or probably television commercials. Since they are the ones responsible for proofreading the lines of people in the limelight, they play a very important role in production of any stage play or movie program.

For those who are good at writing, then entering this field may actually be a good idea.
