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.
It's S.O.P. just about everywhere. Every place I've ever worked has always
asked for an I-9 and copies of my ID and Social Security card. It's a U.S.
federal regulation that they do so.
If they DON'T ask for it, then you should be concerned.
