Every time I think about what happened to me that one beautiful day, I still get goosebumps because that was my whole career shift.
I’m sure a lot of people, if not everyone, at some point realize that they’re not so proud of certain projects from their past. At the same time, they always manage to gain some experience and utilize it somewhere else.
I eventually found myself one of those people. I caught myself toggling between the two roles for six solid years: content production vs technical writing. The more I worked in the marketing niche, the more pressure I was under à la hey you, bring me millions of views with zero investment in ads whatsoever. And I said to myself I want to become one of the best technical writers out there and I need to give it a try. So I did.
I started applying to multiple companies a day, having job interviews one after another, and suddenly, this one project accepted me.
Here I am, on my first day there, getting to know people, and here’s the kicker: the technical writing team that I was introduced to, consisting of six people, was having big issues with documentation.
