Re: Opinion anyone?

[Ned Bedinger <doc -at- edwordsmith -dot- com>]

Get to know an agency recruiter--I've found that recruiters' placement 
strategy changes a lot when they know the person in question. If your 
anonymity is working against you, you can overcome it by finding an 
agency that services the electronics industry (or any industry) and 
getting acquainted in person. Use the time to discuss your credentials. 
An EE is a step in the right direction for lots of tech writing work, so 
unless you live in the shadow of some great polytechnic institute where 
EE resumes rain down from the skies, your experience and background (EE, 
5 years work) are not too weak to work in tech writing.
