I think I saw this advertised on ENWorld a little while back. The fact we're seeing another push either means they're nearing the end of the fixed-date hiring period or they're having trouble finding someone to take the job.

As [MENTION=6685730]DMMike[/MENTION] says, this is pretty much a temporary position. So it might not be a surprise people are reluctant to interview. It's a good job for people who live in the area, but certainly not a good job to move to take.

It does look like a very minor office type job that just happens to concern D&D. Manage licences, do paperwork and filing, and generally be the personal assistant to the entire department.
 

OK, so that's THREE people being hired, after two people were laid off. First, licensing. Second, communication. Third, producer.

We're now UP on the total number of WOTC employees working on D&D.

What will the naysayers and doomsdayers do now?

I'm thinking this job is the same one as the one for licensing.
