Re: Definition of Tech Writer, was STC is broken

No need to worry, or to load up that business card.
Even if the ad I post says "aircraft service technical
writer," the title on the HR job code still just says
"technical writer,"  the job post will include the
necessary qualifications and I know and will brief 
the HR screeners on what I'm looking for in the 
body of the resumes.
