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.
Ok guys, here I am again. I think I have finally decided to relocate from
Rochester, NY to Orlando, Tampa, Clearwater, or Dallas (have family and/or
friends in those places). I have three years of professional experience
as a web designer and technical writer and have my B.S. in Technical
Communication (May '03).
When I move, I will probably be flying down and taking nothing with me -
buying all new (well new to me anyway) stuff because it will probably be
cheaper that way.
I have never relocated before and was wondering how I should go about
finding a job? I have been looking on the major job boards, trying to
find companies in the areas, and posting my resume to web sites. It'd be
great to get a job fairly quickly (I need a job before I can make the
move). Does anyone have any ideas of where else I can look or what I can
do to improve the odds of me getting a job fairly quickly?
My main interest is in moving to near Orlando or Tampa. My skills are in
web design, technical writing, and software documentation for the most
part. I really enjoy web design the most. :)
Any ideas, suggestions, contacts, or stories of when you relocated would
be great. Thanks!
