Hello,
I'm working on rewriting job descriptions for a department here where I work.
I've never rewritten/edited this stuff before and I have samples, but the
descriptions I'm working on are so jumbled (qualifications in the duties
section, etc.), does anyone have any experience in this and/or any guidelines
on how to rewrite/edit this material. (I hate to bug my resources (people)
every 10 minutes? I do have lists of questions for our next meeting, but was
looking for some rewriting/editing guidelines.)
Thanks. B-)
