Google Wants More Foreign Workers

As reported by SEO Metro, Google's Executive, Laszlo Bock, the search giant's vice president of people operations.....testified before the US Congress that the company needs 'brilliant minds from all over the world'. Bock testified that Sergey Brin who made it to the United States when he was 6 y.o. as his parents fled the former Soviet Union grew up to become the cofounder of Google, according the News.com.

This all to place during the U.S. House Judiciary Oversight Committee meeting and the relationship of the business community on foreign workers and those on the status of H-1B workers. Bock testified that 8% of Google's employes hold H-1B visas and are responsible for the creation of Google News and Orkut. Also, interesting to note, 75% of these foreigners have degrees from the United States.

It's too bad that we in the United States are not brilliant enough for Google. I mean afterall, they, foreigners, created news and social networking for Google.

ABSOLUTE GENIUS.
