Dear FQF Hiring Manager,

I read the FQF listing for a Researcher (Remote, Part-time, Contract) on Indeed.com with interest
and am writing to apply.

I am a professional freelancer with some chunks of time free in between project tasks. This listing
sounds perfect to fill those chunks of time doing something that is a definite change of pace but
still rewarding in several ways: monetarily, and because as I get older personal finance has
become important to me. Not only for my sake but also because I want to make sure I set the best
examples for my children.

I have been frequently tasked with research projects by one of my main clients. While some
research tasks are offline, most are online, and frequently involve gathering existing information
about services similar to what my client offers. Once gathered, I analyze the information, share
the results, and either recommend changes to the content of this client's websites or marketing
materials, or make the changes myself if that is part of the task.

The largest research project I have had the pleasure to manage and participate in:
one of my main clients is an art authenticator. In order to assist him when it came to analyzing a
possible work of art by a certain artist that he was frequently hired to do, he wanted a database of
every photo ever taken of any work by that artist. Obtaining these photographs was not just a case
of scanning photos from every book, magazine, newspaper, exhibition catalog, and video
published regarding the artist and his works. During his lifetime, this artist had been known to be
an alcoholic, a womanizer, a frequent traveler, homeless several times, a gambler, and in debt for
much of his career. We also had to find photos his family and friends may have taken: photos of
the works the artist gave away to pay his rent, as gifts to his mistresses, as payment for gambling
debts and even as payment for damages caused to property when intoxicated. The result of this
project is that this client has the only, and very comprehensive, database of photos of works by
said artist.

If the best airline existed but did not yet have a name, and I was asked to name it? I would choose
a name like Blink Airlines, because to be the best airline in my book, they could deliver
passengers anywhere in the world quickly. Today saving time is so important, that naming a
service based on it's speed is probably a good idea.

I handle interesting, yet repetitive tasks by focusing on the interesting part as my reward, once I
can do the repetitive part like an automaton.

Thank you for your consideration.
