Bungie is hiring for a Contract Writer and rumor has it this n00b may be biting off more than they can chew.

The latest update from Bungie.net has led many fanatics on a wild speculation goose chase. The news: Bungie is hiring a Contract Writer for its website. Based on the job description, the best part is "you're contracted to work in this role for nine months." That puts the termination date around the infamous month of November.

  • Knowledge of website content creation and deployment software and systems
  • Must be passionate and experienced with the Bungie Community and our games, especially Halo
  • Prior experience working on a game related community website
  • Assist with editing, formatting and web deployment of content created by other people

On a separate note, the Halo 2 Soundtrack Vol. 2 is nearing completion, but it still has no specific release date assigned.
