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.
Most of the companies I've dealt with in the last year have had a
standard web-based form for resumes, similar to the monster.com
resume wizard. This doesn't allow for much creativity in organizing
your experience in anything but a rigid, detailed
reverse-chronological format. Leaving blanks (or trying to enter a
year-year range rather than exact month/year dates) in any field
often generates errors that prevent submitting your resume to the
company's database. Some even have required Reason for Leaving
fields.
