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.
Without being able to see either your resume OR the ads you're answering, it's
hard to know why you're getting no responses. If you're not getting nibbles
even from local companies or recruiters, it's probably something else in your
resume that needs some work. Changing your apparent address won't work in that
case, ethical or not.
