scam
This company is a scam! They offering you and employment contract and then ask you to complete several tests. When you did it for them, they reject you without any payment. And also it's very hard to get your documents back.

Amnet Systems Editorial Positions Available
Several ads have appeared on major job search websites and local newspapers claiming that Amnet Systems is searching for freelance editors and related positions. This is a scam. Once your cv or resume is submitted, you are contacted via e-mail and asked to complete a rather lengthy series of tests to determine your editorial ability. The tests are in fact projects that they are currently working on, and once you submit your completed tests, you will never hear from them again.
Just for the record, I have a M.A. and am a professional editor / copy editor who doe freelance editorial work on the side to earn additional income. I have worked for several academic publishing companies and have a fair amount of professional experience. Several months ago I applied for one of the positions advertised, and was contacted via e-mail and asked to complete a lengthy 4 part exam which included 1 chapter of a non-fiction book and 1 chapter of a fiction book. (The person who contacted me had an e-mail that originated in India.) Once the test was completed and returned, I didn't hear from them. The person who I had been given to contact via e-mail refused to answer my inquiries.
I've been in contact with several other people who have had identical experiences, some dating back to 2012. I don't know if this is originating with Amnet, if it's simply someone who is using the company's name, or a company contracted by Amnet that is doing this. However, it is definitely a scam! They are not out to hire or contract anybody. They just look for people to do editorial work for free.
