The resume has to be about computer science related jobs.
Do watch the YouTube video as well as read the links given down to learn the technique.
In not more than two pages and based on the audience analysis in Module 4, write your resume assuming that you have in mind the type of job and the type of audience that you are targeting. The resume needs to be tailored to one of the four audience discussed in module 4.
A technical writer must know whom he/she is writing for. The document will not make sense unless the audience is identified and understood. The writer should be able to distinguish between the types of audience and judge the needs of the audience in effective technical communication.
There are basically four levels of audience.
1- Technicians: These are the people who build, operate, maintain, repair and troubleshoot the materials and products that the experts design and visualize. They have a high technical knowledge, which is of a practical variety.
2. Executives: These are the people who work with the experts and the technicians, as well as the product and materials created by them. Thus, they make business, economic, administrative, legal, governmental, and life changing decisions.
3. Non-Specialists: These have the least knowledge but their interest is monumental because they would either want to buy the product or have already bought them and are looking for practical instructions and information, which will tell them what the product can or cannot do
4- Experts: These are the people who know all about the subject, the product and the theory. They can teach you all. Mostly, it is not that the technician or a non-specialist is trying to understand what the expert knows, it is more like that the writer has to find a way to communicate or simplify what the expert wants to tell the audience or pass on the knowledge at the level it is aimed at.
