As a "grisled veteran" looking for work, I view the problem from the other side. From this perspective, I get the impression that every employer is looking for top skills in everything -- not only interactive design but also visual design, information architecture, extensive coding skills, and personable relationship manager all in one person, and preferably at exactly the same level in exactly the same type of company with the same clients as the current opening -- and junior enough to not cost too much. In practice, 2 or 3 of the many requirements turn out to be key, but you often don't find that out until the interview stage. Increasingly I'm noticing a statement like "Note: This is not a ["UI design" or "developer"] job," -- it's actually quite helpful to say what the job is not.
