Its seems that Google is ramping up their efforts to obtain fresh talent!! This is an unusal strategy as headhunter and sending good will ambassadors into a campus is not googles talent capital strategy. This means that they are staved for good people and/or failing in recruitment!!

Om cuts the chatter here ..

==>>Google has 1,800 open positions, or 27% of its current headcount!!

These facts give me an insight that a 27% increase in HUman resources may generate at least 15% revenue growth too ??

They've been making recruiting presentations at MIT for many years (no surprise there).
