Google Inc on hiring spree

 Google said it has job openings for 2,076 positions on its website.

The number of job openings is up nearly six-fold from a similar tally of job listings page conducted in March 2009. The hiring spree is taking place alongside a string of more than 20 acquisitions this year that have already helped swell Google’s ranks to more than 23,300 employees at the end of September, up nearly 18 percent since the beginning of the year. Google’s current job openings are primarily for engineers and sales staffers.
