Google may be looking for someone outside the company who can head its social-media strategy, almost five months after it had pushed the dislike button.
GigaOm reported on Monday that Google has hooked up with the recruiting firm to find a candidate who can be “head of social” at the company. This move, which was not explicitly conformed by Google, would come after Google shook up its lackluster social-media strategy in late 2009 with a series of hires for a new "Social Web Team".
The struggle of Google with social media are documented probably well documented at this point-not that it has affected the bottom line. Still, Google understands it needs to get going as the social Web evolves without as much impact from Google as the leaders of the company would like.
In response to an inquiry done,representative of a company walked right down the middle of the road saying: "We're continuing to invest heavily in people and are recruiting top talent in all areas of the company."
