What I do want to do, however, is show you a very easy way to search for prospects on Google+. My hope is that by the end of this article, even the most skeptical recruiter will see the value in using this new resource to unearth potential placements.
Google is canning 100 recruiters. In a company blog post, Google wrote that it “is still hiring but at a reduced rate. Given the state of the economy, we recognized that we needed fewer people focused on hiring.”
The company also plans to close three engineering offices in in Austin, Texas; Trondheim, Norway; and Lulea, Sweden.
There are also reports that Google will terminate Google Catalog Search, user-generated Google Video; Google Notebook; Twitter rival Dodgeball, and a couple other applications.
