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.
There are still jobs in Northern California and also Southern, San Diego
area, but fewer than before. Denver also boasts some jobs, but fewer
opportunities than before.
======================================
WAY fewer in Northern California. Six or more months ago, the job listing
of the Silicon Valley Chapter of STC would have 20 or more jobs. Last week,
it had 5 direct jobs and one recruiter-facilitated job.
two senior technical writers - staff
one technical translator for Simplified Chinese - open contract
one technical translator for Latin American Spanish - open contract
one senior technical writer - contract-to-hire
one principal technical writer - staff
Recruiters I have talked with are as pessimistic as I have ever seen them,
and I have been writing here since 1982.
