Employment

The STC/SM Job Board immediately connects STC listserv members with employers seeking technical communicators for permanent and contract positions. It's an excellent resource for both STC members and prospective employers, and best of all, it's free!

Local job postings and other chapter news and information are distributed to members through our chapter listserv. If you are an STC/SM member and have access to e-mail, you can subscribe to our chapter listserv to receive the latest job announcements. Please review the listserv registration instructions for more information about subscribing.

Our chapter uses the following methods to distribute announcements about job openings to our members.:
