Marthat & Technical Writers,
I am also a senior (at Northern Illinois University) in technical writing.
It seems that we share common interests, as I too am pursuing such ends.
I and two classmates are individually compiling a report of resources on
the internet for job-aspiring technical writers, so this questionairre
may help several students.  Therefore, I am officially echoing the humble
request for professionals on the list to respond to this survey.  On
behalf of all students of technical writing who possess the common angst
of initial job searching, I thank those of you in the field for your
responses.

P.S.  As president of the NIU chapter of the Society for Technical
Communication (STC), I must tell Marthat that you should investigate the
employment opportunities therein. Thank you for allowing the
endorsement.
