Google Recruits For Expanding Southern California Offices

—-

Google (www.google.com) is aggressively recruiting for spots in its

Southern California offices, where 200 prospective recruits were wined and

dined last week, in a throwback to the go-go years of the dot-com boom.

According to Google’s VP of Engineering, Wayne Rosing, the firm has

virtually a limitless appetite for hiring, and is looking to seriously

expand its research and engineering center in Santa Monica.

Google bought ASI out from under Overture last year to slow their Contextual product development and establish a beachhead in the SoCal tech scene. No surprise that they’re now competing with Yahoo (Santa Monica) and Overture (Pasadena) for the UCLA, USC and most importantly, CalTech engineering pools.
