You will be asked to answer the following questions when submitting a proposal:
1. Do you have or can you get access to a Windows PC computer? Do you have Microsoft Office for Windows? (not required, but good to know)
2. A few of our clients are in the public health sphere and provide a range of reproductive health services, including safe abortion. Would you have any objections to working on these clients' projects?
3. Are you willing to take a paid skills test?
4. With the understanding that you will be afforded maximum flexibility so long as clients are served and deadlines are met, what hours do you typically work/are you reachable?
