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.
I am seeking some advice. I come from an engineering and graphic design
background and have written umpteen manuals and documents, before I decided
to qualify myself with an MS, which am currently finishing at the Illinois
Institute of Technology, Chicago. Is it any easier to get an H1 for a
technical writer with a US degree, or is it as tough? Some companies I
approached turned down my Cv for the inability to work without sponsorship.
How do I get across this hurdle? Also, any leads for a sponsoring company
would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Karthik
