Hey everyone!

Long time no talk (from me at least). I hope you all are doing well in the new year!

To get to the point, I have recruiters reaching out to me through LinkedIn all the time and while most are dead ends, sometimes the conversations evolve a bit. Last Friday I got a call from someone looking for an entry-level documentation specialist for her client, L3 Technologies. The job summary and required skills are pasted below. If you or anyone you know is looking for a position in the Nashville area and are intrigued by this opportunity, let me know and I'll get you/them in contact with the right people.

Create, format and update marketing materials and company policy/procedure documentation. Maintain Documentation Department standards and follow processes throughout the software development life cycle.

Required Skills, Experience and Education:

• Bachelor's degree or equivalent work experience
• Two-four years of full-time work experience directly related to developing technical and/or software product information preferred
