atw: Re: Employment: Ways to shout that I am looking for work in Melbourne

Once or twice I have seen a current employee of a company give a heads-up that 
a job was going to appear on soon on a 
given employment website.  That's pretty nice.

A couple of recruiters post here too.

I don't think anyone has created a "TechWriterJobs" mailing list yet, at least 
for Australia.

company in Melbourne. As for tech writer placements, I'm ignorant of what's in 
Melbourne but in Sydney there's Tech Writer 
- contact Lyneve Rappell - or HCi - contact Julia Liu. They're both good 
companies and they get requests from interstate.
