I want to be a technical writer, what would I need to do besides get the degree? What are other jobs you can get for experience? Because I saw they wanted you to have 5 years experience.



Took a serious pay cut. $140k but my contracts up in under 4 weeks. Trynna get back on the $850-$1000 day rate either as a technical writer or technical project manager in fintech

Find a resume and copy it.
I write articles, blog, books and reports so I just use examples of client work

im not sure if this has been requested yet but would you mind showing us a pay stub for a week/biweekly pay with personal info blocked out??? I think that would help with the skeptics....
I’ll do it today.

So yall think HR giving out 200k salaries and not confirming anything?:mjlol:
yeah it happens all the time actually. seen plenty of people get arrested when the jig is up. "soft skills" get you further than anything.

most of the time, HR don't even communicate between departments that want job postings. thats why theres so many unrealistic job descriptions (ex. you need 5 years of experience in Adobe CS 2018)

I told them I know node.js and was a full stack dev once, and I got the gig. I’ve even been a financial controller lol. I got the boot at both. But I got paid
:duck:If coding is apart of your job and you can't do it how would you survive past week one?

Why didn't you just learn the trade skill in the first place? Most skills literally take a few months to master at a foundational level. :dead:

Being in tech and/or business isn't rocket science as the common myth is to some. If you were unemployed for 1-2 months you could do a self study crash course (or bootcamp if you want to do it more professionally) and learn to do that one thing at a low level but at least efficiently.

After everything you've written I think you're bullshytting about this thread, just way too many red flags. :rudy:

You don't need a degree but you do at least need to know what you are doing to survive. Why would you learn how to market yourself in the greatest way only to get the job then get fired? :mindblown:

Most con men are not qualified but they at least know what it is the fukk they are doing.

I’m personable. It’s not bullshyt because it’s outside the range of what reasonable people do. A lot of gigs just look at a resume especially when the candidate knows the buzz words and can name drop people at the previous organisation they say they worked at

You'd figure guy would have a technical interview with the engineering staff if he claimed to know a language.

These dudes discount the power of charisma and being likable. Of course it’s not the only thing but when you have it it goes a long way.
