MSN Search:
Gearing up for their shoot-out with Google, MSN Search isn’t just hiring, it sounds like they’re actively seeking out the right people for the job. Search engine engineer, and Idle Words author, Maciej Ceglowski reveals:
“I just got a headhunting letter from one Kat Morrell, inviting me to apply for a job with the MSN Search people, as part of ” an ambitious project to create a revolutionary new search engine from scratch”. From the letter, it sounds like they’re preparing the Anti-Google — indexing the entire Internet to create “a search engine that will leapfrog over current technologies”.
”…I find it fascinating that they’re sifting through weblogs to find people interested in search technology. It was obvious that the recruiter had spent more than a few minutes actually reading the site.”
