Yahoo Is Firing Again, While Google is Hiring More Than Ever

As Yahoo announces its second round of layoffs in two months, Google is announcing that it will be embarking on a hiring spree this year. We first heard this morning from soon to be former CEO Eric Schmidt that the company will be adding 1,000 new employees in Europe. And Google's SVP Engineering and Research Alan Eustace just published a post on the company's website announcing that the search giant will ramp up hiring to record levels in 2011. Eustace writes "I love Google because of our people. It's inspiring to be part of the team. And that's why I am excited about 2011?because it will be our biggest hiring year in company history. We?re looking for top talent?across the board and around the globe?and we?ll hire as many smart, creative people as we can to tackle some of the toughest challenges in computer science: like building a web-based operating system from scratch, instantly searching an index of more than 100 million gigabytes and even developing cars that drive themselves."
