Google Factor Influencing Executive Tech Hiring
An EcommerceTimes.com article says the "Google Factor" is increasing demand for tech executives who understand the industry. Globalization is also increasing demand for IT executives. A survey from headhunting firm Christian & Timbers said, "It is 1999 all over again, only at Google. As a result, competition for talent and control of content, search and connectivity technologies is at an all-time high." The survey says the "Google Factor" will have the biggest influence when it comes to demand for tech execs.
What is the most important factor that will influence executive pay and hiring in the technology industry this coming year? Is it globalization? Data management? Business process improvement? No. None of the above. It's Google. Failure of a company to factor in how Google will influence its own bottom line could well lead to its premature demise, according to a new survey just released by New York City-based headhunting firm Christian & Timbers.
"If your company does not have an eye on Google or globalization, your company won't make it to 2010," Umesh Ramakrishnan, vice chairman of performance-based executive search firm Christian & Timbers, told the E-Commerce Times, "and the executives who understand these dynamic market forces are in high demand."
That is a lot of influence from a single company. It explains why some people are even creating blogs to get Google to notice them.
