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.
>>Agreed. When all else is equal, hire the guy with more tool knowledge.
But,
most often, all else isn't equal. And most often, a good tech writer
doesn't
get her foot in the door unless she has lots of experience with
FrameMaker
and
RoboHelp.
>>>Not necessarily true. I know many who do not require Framemaker and
RoboHelp experience. We certainly don't. I think it is widely used, but
it
is certainly not that widely used.
Of course, you're right. I exaggerated. It just feels that way to me
right now, but I know better. Beth
