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.
In all fairness, the person in the email below may have received numerous calls just for the fact of having posted a new resume. I post my resume on a regular basis because recruiters are notified of new resume submissions automatically; when I post a new version, I get calls/emails.
BTW, www.prospringstaffing.com was not available when I clicked the link... I'll try again later.
