Research - Gather Information and Put into an Excel Spreadsheet

I'm writing a series of articles that require a lot of research. Each article ranks a bunch of schools according to how social-media friendly they are. I need someone to take over the research on these articles so I can spend more time writing.

I'd like to be able to send you a spreadsheet with the name and URL of each school filled out and have you find the social media accounts for each school and fill out their Facebook URL, # of likes, Twitter followers, etc.

There will be at least 5-10 more articles in this series. The amount of time involved in the research for each article can be up to 10-20 hours, depending on the number of schools.

I am attaching a spreadsheet that contains the names of 5 schools along with their URLs. If you would like this job, please download the spreadsheet and fill out the social media info for the 5 schools. This is just a short test to see if you understand what is required.

To apply for this job, you must:

1. Submit the test spreadsheet.
2. Tell me how long it took you to gather the data.
3. Tell me why you want this job.
4. Tell me how many hours per week you are available.

The test spreadsheet has instructions in the top row. If the school doesn't have an account for a certain type of social media, leave the cells related to that service blank. If you have any questions, please ask. I would much rather answer your questions than have you guess and get it wrong.

Thanks.
