What is the biggest hiring challenge for Technical Writers?
Finding a writer who can understand deep software architecture and also write beautifully is incredibly rare. Reviewing portfolios doesn't verify their actual technical comprehension speed.
How AI Interviews Screen Technical Writers
The AI presents a complex, jargon-heavy technical concept or API endpoint and asks the candidate to verbally explain it as if they were writing a beginner-friendly documentation page.
Jargon Translation
The AI scores the candidate's ability to simplify complex engineering concepts without losing technical accuracy.
Information Architecture
Evaluates how the candidate verbally structures a hypothetical documentation site or manual.

2. Resume Questions (Dynamic)
When a resume is available, the AI asks targeted questions about the candidate's stated projects, skills, and experience.
3. Custom Questions (Manual)
Write custom questions and attach a scoring rubric so candidates are evaluated against the same role criteria.
