Unexpected default values with Candidate Updater Ruby script using Web API

When we run update_recruits.rb (a Ruby Web API program) to update  multiple candidates, there are 3 picklist fields that get updated to  default values IF they are not already set in Taleo (they have NO  default values set within Taleo):

1. name: Lead at Our Schools, value: Special Projects Staff
2. name: NW Rubric Qualifier Score:, value: 2: 50-69% chance of succeeding
3. name: Qualified Subject Areas, value: English

These 3 fields that were all set to “sort alphabetically”--we have since  turned off that setting, but the bug is still happening.

I'm attaching the code (update_recruits.rb) and sample XML files that are generated.

Howdy, Stranger!
