I found my first tech writing job through a magazine ad, but it didn't call
for tech writers. I saw an ad for a company I wanted to work for, the ad was
a call for engineers. I sent a resume and said "When you get to the point
where you need somebody to write about the thing that those engineers
design, call me." They did.>>
Just out of curiosity, do you remember which magazine contained the ad?
