How Well Can Your Technical Staff Write?
June 1st, 2004
Laurent has a great posting on Hiring Programmers. Note that he doesn’t say people have to be great writers. On the contrary, the bar is fairly low: awareness of spelling and typos, introduction, structured discussion, conclusion — that’s it. My kids practice this kind of writing all the time in school (in preparation for the standardized tests they need to pass in order to receive a high school diploma — MCAS for those of you in Massachusetts).I agree with Laurent, don’t forget to add an audition. But definitely, ask people who need to be able to communicate in writing to write for you.
