Speaker: Andrew Davis
Description
The pandemic rewrote many of the rules for tech writers. From WFH (work from home) norms to hiring to compensation, the world is different now. Some of the changes are already obvious, others much less so. Andrew will take a deep dive into COVID’s implications for your career and suggest ways you can benefit. He’ll also field your questions and advise about specific situations, so come ready to ask questions.
