Staffing agencies and contractors

TekSystems

This job posting was sent in by Kachina member Lynne Xavier: "I haven't had any personal experience working with this company, but I get periodic recruiting calls from them, so I know they have job openings for tech writers. It is a contracting company. Most of the jobs offered to me have been short-term contracts, but I'm sure they get occasional full-time positions, too. It also has offices nationwide, so if you are planning to move away from NM, it might be able to find you a job in your new locale."
