Subject:Alternate Title to Tech Writer? From:Lisa Dugger <saveena -dot- kitten -at- gmail -dot- com> To:"TECHWR-L" <techwr-l -at- lists -dot- techwr-l -dot- com> Date:Thu, 3 Nov 2005 09:18:28 -0600
Hello Everyone!
I am a technical writer at a mortgage company. Basically, I document
all types of procedures. In addition, I am a project manager. Right
now my title is "Technical Writer / Project Manager". The director
and VP of our division does not like the title of Technical Writer.
Since this is my first official gig as a tech writer, I don't really
want to give it up. I'm worried that if I leave this company in a
year and they've made my title "Documentation Specialist" other
employers will not recognize what I actually did.
What other titles can be used to replace Technical Writer and grab
future employers attention? How would Documentation Project Manager
fly?
