Re: Why don't more job interviews use writing tests?
I have on occaision used my own form of "writing test" for writer
candidates who did well on all the other aspects of the interview
process but needed some additional evaluation (usually more a
matter of the company's hiring policy than anything about the
writer). I call mine a 30-day contract.
I wish more managers took this tack. :-/ Sounds like a great idea.

"Be a scribe! Your body will be sleek, your hand will be soft. You are one who sits grandly in your house; your servants answer speedily; beer is poured copiously; all who see you rejoice in good cheer. Happy is the heart of him who writes; he is young each day."--Ptahhotep, 4500 BCE
