Google are hiring….

Google take out a full page ad in Wired magazine

Fancy a job at the googleplex? Google have posted a full page ad in the latest edition of Wired magazine which is a kind of catch all recruitment drive.

Now lets run through the checklist - am I:

  • A co-inventer with 19 patents - nope
  • Knowledgeable of Lisp and have been since 10 years of age - nope
  • Graduated with a degree in computer science at 18 - ermm nope
  • The designer of a VLSI chip - YES, well erm, actually no.

I guess I could carry on hacking about with html and .NET and stuff for now then?

How about you?

    What a fantastic advert to put off most normal people who are reasonably skilled and could probably do a good job for google.

    Im all for google asking for better than average people, but come on…

    In fact, im not sure im even intelligent enough to use google any more. Altavista, all is forgiven.
