Technical Associate Interview Questions

34,218 technical associate interview questions shared by candidates

Some general, CV-based questions about myself to break the ice. Then more pragmatic, use-case-based questions like: - how to deal with their current doc in terms of maintenance, improvement, etc. - I suggested migrating it to make it more efficient, so we discussed possible alternatives like wiki and DITA XML - the core of their doc is API doc so we talked about API doc standards, best practices, doc generators like JavaDoc and Swagger. - Questions on markup like wiki syntax, markdown, rst - Hands-on examples of how I handled issues/problems/mistakes in the past and how I achieved positive results in my past experience as a tech writer

One question I was asked was how I would manage to be adaptable and handle something urgent that comes up suddenly (as this is typical in the role), while still executing everything else I need to get done.

It's always best to understand what you have applied for, always ask for clarification on questions if the question is to broad. Take the time to answer your questions and be precise i.e. do not ramble off on other topics hoping to impress the recruiter or hiring manager.
