Career Guide

Career Guide: "There are no formal channels of entry into this profession through a university degree or certification of any kind. To become a good technical writer one must possess good technical skill as well as communication skills. As Mr. Guru Kamath, a renowned technical writer and founder of Technical Writers of India (TWIN) puts it, ' One should be a good writer with an ability to grasp technology. The people on this profession are from different backgrounds. You have both people who have an arts background and a flair for technology as well as engineers who have a flair for writing'. Other important traits that a technical writer must possess apart from written skills are verbal and presentation skills."
