>>C'mon. Except for us TW folk, no one knows the STCexists. Not HR, not the
enginneers. And they don't care. So, then, what's the great badge of
honor in paying to belong to an unknown entity?<<
WRITING MANAGERS know STC exists. Many of them belong. HR and engineers may
be part of the hiring process, but at least some of the time the decision
maker has some idea of what's going on.
And do you know the HR pro society? Yup, sure there's one! At *least* as
unknown as STC ... suepstewrt -at- aol -dot- com
