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.
Candidate A passed your 12-page test with flying colors, but he/she has the personality of a brick and shows about as much enthusisasm as wet paint drying on the wall.
Candidate B didn?t do so well on your test, but he/she is hungry for work full of life and is eager to do the job.
Which candidate do you choose?
I suspect that if you like the candidate, you?ll overlook the test results and go with the person that?s going to fit in and not challenge your every move.
