Abstract:
This panel discusses three perspectives of transitions upon selecting, changing, and starting a job or career in the technical communication field. Beginning a new job or changing careers is stressful. It involves selecting a corporate culture in which you-feel comfortable so you can
successfully contribute to the company while maintaining
your self-esteem. After working as a geophysicistfor 20
years, obtaining a new degree in technical communication,
and being ar my current job for three years, I will present
insightful hints on choosing and starting a new job while
keeping your self-esteem.
