Hi,
I have a degree in technical communication and am eager to get started in the
profession. I've been sending resumes out and had a few interviews, but
things seem to be inching along at a snail's pace. I'm beginning to wonder if
the fact that I don't really know anyone in the field is minimizing my chances
for employment. Is networking the best (maybe only?) way to get a job in
techcomm?
