This has been an eye-opening thread for me. It had never occurred to me
that a technical writer would farm it out. I'll have to add that question
to my interview list. (And BTW, I doubt I'd hire any writer who did NOT
write his/her own.)

I think something is being overlooked here - He/she(?) was smart enough
to realize that someone else could write an even better resume and that
resume got the job, which was the goal.
