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've been asked to write a job description--my own, if I want it. The
job is going to involve setting documentation procedures, and--within
the next year--organizing a documentation department for four related
companies.
The job description is supposed to include salary expectations,
benefits, and outlines of policy and development.
I have one week to write it. If anybody cares to suggest the sorts of
issues that I should cover, I'd be hysterically grateful for any input.
"And see ye not yon bonny, bonny road
That winds about the fernie brae?
That is the road to fair Elfland,
Where you and I this night must gae."
--"Thomas the Rhymer"
