Irish
Luck To Bring More Google Jobs?
 By
David A. Utter
700 more positions at Google's Dublin-based European headquarters may be opening
soon, and bring to 1,000 the number of people working in Dublin for the search
advertising company.
No one has officially confirmed the report
on ElectricNews.net's web site, but a quick look at Google's jobs site for Ireland
shows plenty of open positions across multiple facets of the business.
The report noted Google co-founder Sergey Brin praising Dublin as "an amazing
place with incredibly talented people" when the center opened in 2004. Google
operates globally, with centers of varying sizes on six continents.
Google's success at search has translated into a booming online advertising business.
Contextual ads delivered in search results and across a network of published websites
have been a multi-billion dollar source of revenue for the company.
Keeping ahead of search competitors has been a motivation for expanding globally.
Google recently saw Credit Suisse First Boston raise its target price for shares
of GOOG to $475 from $400, and fulfilling that promise means Google has a lot
of work to do. It looks like a lot of that work will be done in Dublin by more
people very soon.
