TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
My company is working on a description for a new position within the
documentation group. We need someone to work on GUI design, help
systems, and Wizard development. What we have here is a case of only
half-knowledge of what we need/want in a candidate. I am hoping that
someone can help us to learn which questions we should be asking. So:
1) What kind of experience level is needed?
2) What is the skill set needed? Programming (which languages)? Human
factors?
3) If you have ever developed Wizards, what did you do and what tools
were you using (looking for your personal experiences here)?
Thanks so much for any information you can provide.
