google and the art of recruiting

"I said Google, not Sizzler, " says Micky Rosa, the kingpin for the card-counting affair and the MIT professor in the movie 21.

As innovative as they get, I love Google's recruitment strategies ! Last time I made a remark like this was when I interviewed with them. This time around I make this comment after watching 21.

The product placement of "Google as a prestigious job" in the movie 21 was brilliant. This truly exemplified the "context-sensitive" nature of Google !

In the past, I have seen cyber-sleuthing as a technique being deployed by them at a massive scale in an amazing way to fetch talent from the open market - now, this. Well, the firms thirsty for talent have a thing or two to learn from Google !
