How to effectively manage workflows?

Hi all,I'm a first year analyst (lateral hire) at a big bank who is finishing up their first month on the job. I certainly am stoked to be here and very much enjoy the exposure I'm getting. With that being said, I also am in need of advice on managing workflows. I've always tried to be more methodical when it comes to my work, but I was recently staffed on a monster book (think 80+ one page profiles). Obviously being new I have some leeway when it comes to making small formatting mistakes but I'm finishing it extremely difficult to properly proofread when I have comments coming in every second to turn.Does anyone have advice on how to manage the push and pull of proofreading everything but also turning comments in a quick manner? I keep making mistakes and it's becoming frustrating

Thanks!
