Recommendation

Year after year, Google earns recognition for its human resources management. As a result, landing a job at Google is more difficult than getting accepted to Harvard University. In this insightful interview, Laszlo Bock, Google’s then senior vice president of people operations, reveals the secrets of the organization’s hiring practices and offers advice to job seekers. Bock depicts a corporation that pioneers an analytical approach to HR. getAbstract recommends his candid exposé to hiring managers, HR professionals and anyone currently wading through the recruitment process.

Take-Aways

  • Google, a pioneer in the field of human resources, recognizes that managers are prone to bias in the recruitment process, so the company hires by committee.
  • Google pays its star performers as much as 10 times more than its average performers, because the company believes one good employee is worth several average employees.
  • Academic research and big data inform all Google’s human resources practices. The organization rigorously tests its HR programs to ensure they are valid best practices.
