At my last in-house position, the Documentation team and the UX team shared
a suite. And there was one guy who would have made an excellent IxD. Making
him part of my team would have been as simple as moving his desk to the
other side of the room.

Of course, if you do it on a consulting basis, it's a simple matter of
putting "interaction designer" on your business card. ;)

But seriously. It's all about the portfolio. Prove you know what you're
talking about, and it doesn't matter where you went to school (or if you
went to school at all, for that matter).
