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.
"Entry Level" can mean someone with no experience in a
profession, but can also mean someone with no experience
in an industry or technology. A candidate with a couple of
years of writing experience but none in our tech will still be
pretty close to a glorified secretary and DTP operator until
they've been trained in our subject matter.

be

requirements

job
