I'm supposed to get information for my chosen profession...uh, I'll just list what I need to know, supposedly....But a lot of this might not apply. Thanks for the help!

1) Education/skill required(college degree, training, where to get such training, how long it takes)

2) Salary- Annual salary range(probable annual salary, I have to convert it to a monthly amount. I guess this is hard for concept artists who freelance...

3) Job description- duties, I gotta list al possible duties, from leaping off tall buildings, to somehow getting lazer vision

4) Benefits- list all benefits, car/ phones/beepers(yeah right)

5) Chance for promotion-what, if any, where are jobs mostly located

6)Retirement-401k/403b option(for an artist? yeah, whatever...)

7)Working hours-what type, is overtime good....

8) Vacation/sick leave- how does it accrue, paid or unpaid leave , rollover unused leave...

9) when/how paid-how often a month? cash or check?Can it be direct deposited?

10) dress code-mmm,hmmm.

That's right, Gathering information with 10 minutes at most of work is 30% of my grade for this half of the semester..oi.

Oh, I'm trying to design stuff for companies like interplay, but more alive ;)
