Project Description:
I have a list of 120+ firms and specific dates when a new CEO was appointed. I would like you to search three daily newspapers (WSJ, NYT, USA Today) for corresponding news coverage on the same date. You'll then copy & paste, and organize each news article into word file.
You'll sometimes have to quickly skim through the news article to make sure that you've found the right one. Attention to detail, familiarity with the topic, and good judgement is a great plus!
Required skill: Data Entry, Administrative support, Research
Completion Date: Complete - Jul 3, 2015
Client: erhee21 - seattle, Washington, United States
Comments: It was a easy job but I needed some time to invest. I really enjoyed the 'copy and pasting' job. I collected news articles according to my client's given links from four major and well-known newspapers of USA. Although he thanked me to complete the job withing the shortest time, I didn't yet get feedback from my client. I requested him a lot of time to leave a feedback. But I didn't get any response. I am still waiting to get feedback from him.
Through this project, I learnt how to grab articles or information from Premium News sites. It's really simple but creative. I had to use techniques to grab those articles. Although the client told me to use incognito mode of browser to grab some articles, It was unable to help me in some case. Then, I had to collect the full articles technically.
