A quick look over at the Official Google Blog and you’ll find that Google is looking for some excellent people to fill in some spots in the company parking lot. Following a couple of links through you’ll find that they have open positions in a lot of their world wide sites.

It is awesome to know that such a diverse and vested company is still hiring and seems to be doing OK amidst what everyone will tell you is an economic nightmare.  Google is doing so well that they even offered up a multi-million dollar stock bonus for the Googlers that helped develop Google Chrome (Google’s web browser). If that isn’t an incentive to try and become a genuis and apply I don’t know what is.

On top of their game

If you haven’t noticed, Google has been innovating like crazy lately with projects like Google Maps Navigation, Google Wave, Android, and Google Voice. Most of these products are still considered “beta” but just about everything that Google makes is in a perpetual beta.  Even though Google had to lay off some folks at the beginning of the year, it looks like Eric Shcmidt and crew are ready to start another round of hiring again.

If you want to take a look at what Google is looking for check out this post at the official Google Blog.

And, a quick extension from this; what do you think that Google is looking for in people? What do you think some of the most important skills for potential Googlers are? If you have any ideas leave them in the comments below.
