Sorry, just saw this.
Audio book jobs are very budget conscious. So you'll need to prove you are efficient and thorough. They'll usually have a set budget, say 30 hour edit for a 80,000 word book. But if you can work remotely on your own time then you can afford to take your time and hone your skills.
You'll need to get yourself familiarised with NR tools like Izotope RX to remove pops and clicks.
You should practice editing on podcasts or similar material. Just download something and start hacking.
