Rude Exercise 1.1
I searched Monster.com for positions as a technical editor, and I found thirteen job postings for the last month. What suprised me most was the variation in duties that people categorize under "technical editor." Some job descriptions included the production of content, others were adminstators, others were to keep track of when documents were distributed and received, and some were meant to only proofread and ensure consistency. Some were for textbooks and training materials, other were for web only content. Many of the jobs were discipline specific, such as for an aerospace engineering company and another technical design firm. I also noticed the word design was used a lot. I didn't find any specific salaries mentioned; most just said they offered competitive salaries and 401k plans. These jobs were located all throughout the country, but there seemed to be a lot from Virginia.
