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.
Thanks for the many reponses to T.W. Background. For
the last question, Does the future of T.W. look
bright, some responded 'if you're good and have a
solid resume'.
What kinds of programs and knowledge are standard
for entry-level positions? I attend an engineering
school and study tech. comm. as a major., but I'm not
studying to be an engineer. Many of those who reponded
had engineering backgrounds. Am I at a disadvantage? I
can pick up new concepts and programs fairly quiclkly,
but there is a lot that I still don't know. Any
thoughts?
Thanks,
Anthony Hernandez
