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.
Speaking of ridiculous requirements for a job posting, go to this URL and
search for "higher intelligence". Take a look at any of the four responses
you get.
My favorite line is: will take higher intelligence over years of experience.
Would that rool me out?
They've actually modified this recently. They used to specify 3.8 or above
GPA from college or graduate school.
