TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Can someone suggest how best to offer writing samples to prospective
employers? Any suggestions about, for example, how long samples should be
and what kind of paper to use?
I'm particularly interested to know: if you want to offer samples of online
writing you have done, along with samples of writing you have prepared for
print, what is the best way to combine them in one portfolio? Can you just
print out Web pages from your browser?
Are there any Web sites or books that talk about these issues?
