A couple of people have touched on this, but I am going to pound it  
home by flatly stating that no junior interaction designer should  
ever join a company without a more senior interaction designer there.  
I'm sure there are exceptions to this, and I'm sure some of these  
senior designers aren't the best mentors, but as a general rule, I'm  
certain this is true. Especially new designers fresh out of design  
school need mentoring and more training--often to unlearn or re-learn  
the stuff they learned at school.
