Businesses of all sizes are spending a good bit of time and energy digitizing their operations. While a business’s digital transformation may make systems more efficient and workers more productive, digital enterprises still require extensive documentation and the technical writers who create it.

This hiring kit from TechRepublic Premium provides an adjustable framework your business can use to find the right person for the job.

From the hiring kit:

DETERMINING FACTORS, DESIRABLE PERSONALITY TRAITS AND SKILLSETS

Whether on paper or in digital form, technical writers are generally hired to write documentation, instructions, operator manuals, explanatory reports, etc. These documents are often supported by illustrations, diagrams, tables, photos and other features.

For digital documentation, technical writers may also use animation and videos to reach their audience. Multimedia skills are yet another characteristic. One skill decision-makers should not overlook when recruiting technical writers for their organization is the ability to elicit and draw out information from engineers, technicians, product managers, department heads and senior-level management.
