      Technical Writer Interview

      18 Oct 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Prague
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Red Hat (Prague) in Sept 2023

      Interview

      I had an initial call with a member of the talent acquisition team. She provided very detailed information about the role and the company, along with a clear overview of the interview process. A few days later, I had a 40-minute call with the hiring manager and a senior writer. The conversation was quite casual and stress-free. They asked me some basic questions about my favorite tools, preferred Linux distribution, and more. The rest of the conversation focused on generic technical writing questions and my personal experience with technical documentation. The final step would have involved a longer call with other team members; however, I was not selected to proceed with the interview process. The talent acquisition partner with whom I initially spoke called me to deliver the news and provided personalized feedback, which I greatly appreciated. Overall, it was a positive experience with a very professional attitude from the Red Hat team members.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Do you have experience with Linux? What is your favourite distribution? What do you know about Red Hat? What is your favourite code editor? How do you learn new skills? Do you read technical documentation? Tell us about a technical doc that you liked?
