		<description>David,

How did Google get to own that .jobs domain: http://engineering.jobs ?

I have just been on the .jobs web site and the question about generic .jobs addresses is covered as follows:

-----------------------------------------

24. I want to secure a generic name in .jobs, such as "Nursing.jobs" or "Tokyo.jobs". Will this be allowed? 

The ability to secure a generic word in .jobs is highly dependent upon your legal or commonly known company name - if you are not known by that word, you can not register it. Additionally, various generic terms and identifiers, such as geographic names (major cities, countries, etc.), industry and occupational classifications, profane words and other terms of common interest to the HR Community are subject to the .jobs Reserve List Policy.
  
-----------------------------------

It clearly states "if you are not known by that word, you can not register it."

Very confusing?

Thanks
Mike</description>
