Why do Google, Microsoft, IBM, Cisco, etc keep coming over to universities if it's so outdated and useless. Why aren't they out on Tumblr or photo sharing sites trying to work on problems and recruit? They could save a lot of money on these plane trips by just looking at blogs! Don't they know any better? :)
- fruchtose 14y agoHaven't you heard? All of these companies are dead/dying/about to be obsolete. Of course they recruit at universities!
- glenra 14y agoUm, Google often recruits by posting puzzles on billboards or in magazines and by running contests and by paying headhunters. I mean, I'm sure they go to universities too, but they certainly don't recruit exclusively there.
- viraptor 14y agoActually they do. Write some interesting posts on tumblr, get it on LinkedIn, get high score on stackoverflow and you'll see the google recruiters writing to you at some point.
- dinkumthinkum 14y agoExactly, but the mystery is why they are wasting time at those useless universities! :)
