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.
I think it's important to talk to candidates in most cases, to get a
sense of their basic intelligence and how well organized that brain is.
Chaotic, sloppy people are not what you need. If someone is deficient
in experience, or degrees, but has intelligence, drive and mental
organization, there's no reason not to consider that candidate over
someone with more certifications but less of those traits.
