Correction: Researcher position with Internet Scout

[Susan Calcari]

Apologies for the reposting of this job announcement, but it has been
brought to my attention several times already this morning [aaaahhem... ]
that the URL I included in the message last night was relative, and no
longer works. The correct URL is now included at the bottom of the
announcement.

Also, in my efforts at lightheartedness I omitted key information in the
announcement, such as the requirement for a degree in Computer Science
(!!) which of course was listed in the official job posting, which no one
could get to.  [Sigh. Yet another lesson in how not to send out important
mail late in the day. :-) ]

Regards,

Susan
