Every HR blogger out there is telling the story of a Google interview gone bad. Myself, I don’t care about their employment practices.

The real cause of the offshore crash is that you can’t keep a good man down. MORE
It’s the NBA finals so why not check out the Steve Nash videos on employment branding.
