I'm a soon to be graduated student who is interested in human computer interaction. I haven't done much design work but I have worked on software and web projects which involve dealing with usability. Does anyone have advice for someone who would like to do work involving interactive design?

Build things that show off your skills, write articles about interaction design, network with other designers and with the type of people you'd like to work with, and never stop hustling. Even if you don't get hired right away, you'll have a sizable portfolio for your efforts, and that definitely can't hurt.

I do a lot of specing for our web development, and it's mostly photoshop/fireworks/visio, then putting it into a powerpoint with boxes and arrows describing the dynamic elements. Is this how everyone works?

Stephen Evermore: Is this multilingual? Does it require cross-cultural semiotics?

Ben Overmyer: As it doesn't use written or spoken language at all, it's reliant on cross-cultural semiotics in order to function internationally.
