Abstract:
The technical communications profession involves a unique mix of technical and communication skills, which is not easy to find. Most managers have had the experience of interviewing and subsequently hiring a candidate who later turns out not to be the right person for the job. This situation begs the question of how to identify which candidate is a good fit for a given position.

We have all been on both sides of the interview, and this article will attempt to make you, the interviewer, more successful.
