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.
An engineer or a programmer can point to how well
> their solution works, how long it took to create, and whether it came
> in under budget.
>
> So what criteria can a tech writer use to convince a
> potential employer?
>
> Writing samples? I could be passing someone else's samples off as my
> own. Work done professionally for other people may not be mine to use
> for samples.
And an engineer or a programmer could be taking credit for someone
else's work too, or over-playing how much of the solution was to their
credit. What, only writers can lie?
