Google, having reduced its hiring rate, is also reducing its hiring staff.The company said on its corporate blog that it’s cutting about 100 jobs.”Given the state of the economy, we recognized that we needed fewer people focused on hiring,” said Laszlo Bock, Google’s vice president of people operations, in the blog posting. “Our first step to address this was to wind down almost all our contracts with external contractors and vendors providing recruiting services for Google. However, after much consideration, we have with great regret decided that we need to go further and reduce the overall size of our recruiting organization by approximately 100 positions.”
