Part 2: Next, you’ll complete the below chart in a new document (see an example in section 4 of this week’s reading).
Keep in mind you should be imagining what kind of document this employer needs a technical writer to make, and use the chart to analyze that. In other words, don’t use the chart to analyze the employer, but instead use it to imagine a document they might want you to create.
Also be aware that many of the job postings (such as the above) don’t have a lot of specifics, so you can make educated guesses as to some of the answers as needed.
