Title:
What Tech Professionals Can Learn from Writing and Blogging

What your talk is about:
Every IT professional loves documentation. Said no one ever.

You didn't pursue a career in technology just so you can spend most of your time writing. But there is more to writing and blogging than putting words on paper (or a word processor.)

In this talk, learn how writing and blogging can help you advance your career as an IT professional. You will learn how to improve your communication skills thru writing articles and blog posts so you can enhance your tech skills and get ahead in your career.

As an added bonus, learn how you can get jobs chasing you instead of submitting hundreds of resumes to find your dream job.
