SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) -- Google Inc is hiring to fill about 360
jobs, even after it announced plans this week to lay off almost 200
sales and marketing employees in its third round of job cuts this
year.
The openings listed on Google's website range from software engineers
to sales and marketing positions, to one opening for a Foodservices
Supply Chain Manager at Google's Mountain View, California
headquarters.
The Internet search giant has acknowledged over-hiring in certain
areas when it announced the 200 layoffs Thursday. In January, Google
(GOOG, Fortune 500) said it would eliminate 100 full-time recruiters
and it said the shuttering of its broadcast radio advertising business
could result in 40 layoffs in February.
Google is an organization of more than 20,000 people doing an
incredibly diverse array of jobs...
