Some time ago our company looked for a technical writer.
As a very very small department the person would also have to be able
to write Marketing material.
My boss who was neither a writer nor a native speaker of English, told
candidates, that anyone who can write can learn to do technical
writing, for Marketing writing you need more skills.
Do you agree with that?

(I don't think I do)
