Follow up-question: IDEO in SF has a writing position open and it's tantalizing given their reputation.

Question is, how do they use their staff writers? Are they actually involved in the conceptual/problem solving portion of the job alongside the lovely visual folk, or do they just write blog posts, website copy, and the "Pull" sign on the door of a well-designed outhouse?

I'm the hiring mgr for designers in my org. I recently discovered pay band information given to me by the HR generalist I'm working with on hiring was outdated and updated bands had been released over the summer (prior to my hire date). The outdated information had led me to believe a prime candidate was out of range. Aside from incompetence, can anyone think of a reason why HR might have withheld information about the pay bands? I assume mgrs see the full monty when it comes to pay...right?

Hey Gente, Im applying for jobs and I wanted to get others opinion on the race part of the application process.
