Subject:What is ADP? From:Susan Mitchell <susanm -at- NCD -dot- COM> Date:Wed, 25 Aug 1993 16:46:02 GMT
My friend is applying for an entry-level technical writing job
for which experience with ADP is a requirement.
What does ADP stand for?
Is it computer system-specific? Which system?
Is it a highly technical skill?
Is there any way to come up to speed on it quickly?
My friend mentioned something about DNA as well. What's that?
Clueless and unable to advise,
