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 agree with Keith's perspective on the responsibilities of the hiring
managers. That said, knowing what I know about the folks in STC,
they're less worried about criteria to weed out applicants than they
are about wearing another badge.
I thought it was funny, and a bit embarrassing, that a number of
senior members at summit felt that it was necessary to stick labels on
their badges to parade their Senior Member, Award Winner, Fellow, or
Executive status.
Personally, if I really cared about that stuff, I'd ask the other
person. I coud read the experience level of the other attendees
without the strips of colour.
