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.
For the first time, I saw an employment advertisement that explicitly stated
that resumes submitted will be scanned and should therefore be formatted
in blank ink on white paper with 10-14 point type. The ad appeared in the
Sunday, December 10, 1995 issue of Raleigh's _The News and Observer_.
There was no mention of keywords. :-)
