Anita Ford, alumna from our program in Technical Writing, has begun work at Cobalt Iron, Inc. as one of two of their first technical writers charged with building a team. The company is based in Lawrence, KS.
"I wasn't looking for a new job, but this was a unique opportunity I was unable to pass up," Anita reports. "The company wants us to write everything from software user manuals to SOPs, training materials, and even some marketing materials. We have started off our first week by building a style guide. Old school!"
Cobalt Iron, Inc. is moving the business to the Olathe/Overland Park area in about six months in preparation for a large hiring push.
Anita advises current students to keep their LinkedIn profile up to date. "That's how the recruiter found me. Also, get your master's. It opens serious doors." EML happens to offer one of those.
Congratulations, Anita! The Griffon pipeline to Cobalt Iron, Inc. has officially begun!
