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 want to second this remark. Even if you're not looking for a job,
doing a quick read over the job postings gives you an idea of what is
going on in the industry, what companies are looking for. I used a
composite of the job postings on this list once to create my job
description. I was the first and only tech writer, so it was wide open.
The job postings I collected also helped my boss, who knew nothing of
tech writing, to get an idea of what it is we do.
I hate to hear that people don't want to post jobs to this list for fear
of being flamed. The job is usually stated clearly in the subject line,
just delete it.
<<Agencies and companies posting jobs are doing us a favor. Let's
lighten up and just hit the delete key.>>
