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.
This list is replete with tales of documents that were sent out for
"technical review" which came back with spelling and grammar errors
flagged, but no substantive responses.
Those small errors will be caught.

Given the chances that the person looking at the resume is not,
themselves, a writer, how likely is it that they will catch one or two
small errors? <snipped>
