Our oldest daughter just got hired there as a technical writer in their NYC office. Compared to other places, they seem to be hiring like crazy. They have offices at various points in the country and I don't recall if they have a Chicago office.

Google was actually my first interview after being let go.

They contacted me about a position in Mountain View (and I certainly would have stayed in the bay area had I received an offer, but that ended up not happening). They do have a Chicago office, but the last time I had checked they didn't have any relevant positions. Checking again now though, it seems they have a couple that I might be suited for. Thanks for the heads up, and congrats to your daughter!
