Google's attempt at poaching departing Yahoo employees
 

:thumbsup:thumbsup

Makes sense, actually. Since Yahoo search has been replaced by Bing thereby saving Yahoo hundreds of millions yearly:

I was talking to an excellent new Googler that joined from Yahoo this week, and that reminded me that I meant to do this post a little while ago. So I?ll keep this post short and sweet: if you?re an excellent Yahoo engineer with solid experience in search, Google is hiring. If you want to apply for a Software Engineer (SWE) position in Mountain View, use this job page and the application will make it to the right recruiters. Thanks!

I bet ex-Yahoo employees send their resume to Google promptly upon exiting ;)

well google didn't get to the top of the heap by being dumb.

Fo Shizzle

where else would they go? it's either ms or google for them..

well sort of... if they want to keep being in search yeah those are the obvious choices. But fuck man no engineer worth hiring is limited to just search....

They could go to Wolfram Alpha... Nah, go to Google.
