Thats what I do for a living. Its a combination of graphic design and human factors. Instead of just skinning a UI or adding icons or something you actually get involved with the development teams and work out how the information flows, what the screens look like in terms of layout, how information gets presented, how tasks are completed, and so on.
- this is what i do, plus leading the teams i am part of. interesting.– madirish1/4

- At IBM we're paid as software engineers– ninjasavant1/12
  what training do you have for that? out of interest– kelpie2/12
  my degrees are in studio art and psychology. The details I learned on the job.– ninjasavant3/12
  But if you're looking for a program you'd look into Computer Human Interaction (CHI). . .– ninjasavant4/12
  and double major/minor in graphic design/art.– ninjasavant5/12
  Or the other way around, either way, it takes a certain amount of ability to think technically and in cognitive terms– ninjasavant6/12
  agree w/ ninja 100% here. my bg was art history/studio (study of g.design) + business and a color theory.– madirish7/12
  the CHI stuff came on-the-job– madirish8/12
  same here, I was lucky to pick it up on the job.– ninjasavant9/12
  cheers guys. it does sound interesting; my brother is a big time software engineer, hence my interest– kelpie10/12
  bollocks to the $ to the left.– meffid11/12
  cool, ninja and mad. that sounds interesting.– Jaline12/12

I wish. Seems like the better our company is doing the tighter the belt gets. I've submitted an abstract to an internal conference we're having in September in Boston and its likely I won't get travel approved unless I can tie the trip to a customer visit. . .
Its one of the obnoxious perks.

"Primary applications include InDesign and Visio"
that is a scary sentence to me
- InDesign is a great spec writing tool.
  Visio is just what techheads know how to use.– ninjasavant

I do this as well. Ninjasavant is correct - it's not about aesthetics (entirely) but more about the psychology of user interaction(TM).
InDesign and Visio aren't scary - it's the same philosophy as architecture. You need to make sure your building, website won't fall down, can be functional, etc... before you actually build it. :-)
- Visio is a big one in the government.– Jaline1/2
  I know - it's like the secret handshake of the corporate fraternity.– olli1012/2

I had a job like this for a while. In my case a lot of the work involved lots of meetings and interviewing people just to figure out what the application we were designing was supposed to do. Could be fun at times when since it's more of an intellectual challenge than just visual design, but also tedious and frustrating.

Although, I never used Visio (blegh). Used Illustrator for all my wireframes:)

They are looking for a interactive designer so they do not need to hire a UX person.
- that made no sense. Im sick. point being the want to one person to do 2-3 jobs.– rson1/6
  fuck it i am going back to bed– rson2/6
  Same job, different title– ukit3/6
  sleep it off, bro. You'll be ok.– ninjasavant4/6
  not necessarily. at one place UX designers were different from Interactive Designers.– monkeyshine5/6
  depends on the skill set and division of labor– ninjasavant6/6
