Google Still On a Hiring Binge
By Doug Caverly - Fri, 10/19/2007 - 9:17am.

Google offers its employees an amazing collection of perks, but other companies need workers, too, and those companies don’t want to deal exclusively with Mountain View’s leftovers. So Forbes’s Brian Caulfield figured out several ways to compete with Google during the hiring process.
Judging An Employee By Her Search Results

I'm hesitant to bring this up because it puts me at risk of being dropped into the Pollyanna Pond – business and idealism just don't mix, I'm told. But I wonder if employers are missing out on some exceptional talent because of snap judgments and preconceived notions about job candidates.
