I think anyone breaking into the field (or a new type of tool) would do very well to train up on these open source tools and create portfolio pieces with them. http://tc.eserver.org/34338.html http://tc.eserver.org/34338.html Lost your technical communicator job? Wondering what to do? Wondering where to go? Here are some key actions to take when you find out you don't have a job to return to the next day. http://tc.eserver.org/26676.html http://tc.eserver.org/26676.html The STC Austin newsletter is now in blog format. Archives available at http://www.stcaustin.org/newsletter/archives.html. http://tc.eserver.org/19164.html http://tc.eserver.org/19164.html The STC Austin chapter conducts a salary survey each year.

Anyone can use the Job Bank and the Resume Bank; you do not have to be a member of STC. There is no fee to members for using the Resume Bank and only a small fee to non-members, to defray administrative expenses. The STC Job Bank helps employers locate technical communicators by publicizing company job openings and posting current resumes of technical communicators in the job market. STC publishes news about positions and employment resources available to technical communicators on a local, national, and international level. The Job Bank Committee is not an employment service; we simply facilitate information-sharing about positions for technical communicators and the people available to fill them. The responsibility for judging qualifications, making contact, and discussing terms rests solely with the job-seekers and the employers involved.
