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 gone for quite a few jobs in the past, and usually the interviews have
gone swimmingly, and usually for the interviews that have gone swimmingly, I
received an offer for a job.
But.
For those that I haven't, including one that they said they were extending
an offer to me but they just changed their minds, I've often gotten the
feedback that I "wasn't technical enough".
In the context of technical writing as the job, what the hell does that
mean?
