How to Get a Job at Google

The NY Times is reporting on the new ways Google is using to find employees.

It is amazing how fast they are growing. According to the article:

Google’s growth is staggering even by Silicon Valley standards. It is constantly leasing new buildings for its overflowing campus here and opening offices around the world.

Google has doubled the number of employees in each of the last three years. Even though the company now has about 10,000 employees, Mr. Bock says he sees no reason the company will not double again in size this year. That would increase the number of hires to about 200 a week.

So how do they choose who to hire? Lately, they have been having candidates fill out a huge online form. Then, they use an algorithm to grade the applicants.

What a surprise! (Sound familiar? Google algorithm?)

Stick to what you are good at, I guess.
